Samantha has helped clients get into these companies:
As a former Business Analyst at McKinsey & Company, I bring a deep understanding of the management consulting industry and what it takes to succeed in the application process. I led the events workstream for Washington University in St. Louis recruiting, and my team organized resume workshops, case workshops, and other sessions to help candidates apply and interview at McKinsey. During my time at McKinsey, I led a hiring accelerator for one of my clients where I reviewed resumes, wrote resume review criteria, and wrote job descriptions to help my client determine who to interview and ultimately hire. I am my friends' go to person for helping with resume edits, LinkedIn reviews, and networking tips. I would love to help you land your dream internship or entry-level role in tech, real estate, or consulting.

Why do I coach?
The main reason I coach is the strong impact mentors and advisors have had on me over the years. I am fortunate to have connected with amazing professionals and experts to advise me throughout my academic and professional life, and I would love to pay it forward and help others. I have always loved teaching and mentoring students whether that was by being a TA in college co-teaching an introductory business course subsection, volunteering at the Juvenile Detention Center in St. Louis, or more recently working with high school students on mental health awareness and advocacy at a local nonprofit. I would love to help you make your dreams a reality by landing amazing consulting offers or getting accepted to your dream school!
