Laura Vanessa’s MBA Qualifications

Laura Vanessa has helped clients get into these schools:

Hello and welcome to my profile! I'm Laura, currently pursuing my MBA at Stanford GSB. With a background in Business from King's College London, where I graduated first in my class, I've built a strong foundation in business strategy and operations. My professional journey includes impactful roles at Barclays Banking and the Boston Consulting Group. I've successfully coached individuals through the MBA application process, leveraging my firsthand experience and insights from top-tier institutions. As an international student myself, I understand the leap of faith it takes to move abroad and break into the ultra-competitive UK and US higher education systems. Coming from a First-Generation-Low-Income background, I had no family experience or connections to rely on—in fact, I was the first in my family to even speak English. Despite these challenges, I successfully navigated the application process, getting accepted into all 5 MBA programs I applied to across the US, EU, and Asia. I know firsthand how daunting the journey can be, especially when competing against peers who have been groomed for top-ranked schools from a young age. I'm here to help you make it work, even with constrained resources, and to guide you in crafting a standout application. Let’s turn your aspirations into acceptance letters - I’m here to help you achieve your MBA dreams!
