I love helping others tell their story. From my own college and MBA applications, admissions office experience, and work as an interviewer - the key to admissions success is a coherent narrative connecting all the elements of your application, not just your essay. I look forward to working with you to uncover and articulate the character traits, accomplishments, motivations, and future ambitions that make you the stellar applicant you can be.

About Rusty

I am an alum of both Harvard Business School and Harvard College. I previously worked with both of these admissions offices, and have separately served as an alumni interviewer. While living in India for 4 years, I ran an admissions consulting business helping foreign students successfully navigate T30 admissions. Professionally, I was an Engagement Manager in Deloitte's Growth Strategy Practice, focused on tech and financial services. I have launched multiple start-ups, and have deep experience with Big Tech firms. -- I love helping others tell their story. My lesson from my successful college and MBA applications, work within admissions offices, and as an admissions interviewer - the key to acceptance is a coherent narrative connecting all the elements of your application. I look forward to working with you to uncover and articulate the character traits, accomplishments, motivations, and future ambitions that make you the stellar applicant you can be. I'm new to the Leland platform, and am offering discounted rates while I build my business here. Sign up for a free intro call and we can design a custom coaching program that meets your needs.

Why do I coach?

As a first generation college student, I would not be where I am today without the coaches and mentors who guided my way. My degrees, career, and personal development were all fueled by the wisdom of respected folks around me. I enjoy paying it forward. I'm excited to meet, and support you to achieve your dreams!
