Tracy’s MBA Qualifications

Coaches professionally

With a first-gen background, I didn't grow up with parents who knew how to navigate the college admissions process. I used the same practices from applying to undergrad programs to get into the Wharton MBA program. I was accepted to 6 top MBA programs without using a personal consultant since I had to support my parents. I've coached others with applying to MBAs from researching and understanding the differences between schools, creating a game plan, crafting a story for the essays, preparing recommenders for the letters, and practicing for interviews. I also review and polish essays.

About Tracy

I am an incoming McKinsey Associate and on break before my start date! I studied anthropology at Stanford before joining J.P. Morgan Private Bank as an investment specialist. After 6 years there, I went to Wharton for my MBA to pivot into a consulting career. Coming from a first-generation, low-income background, I needed to hustle to understand the admissions process. I'm excited to share my process with you and help you think of a game plan and craft an application that truly reflects you. I also very much enjoyed the consulting recruiting process (I used to do case interviews to procrastinate school work). I had spent hundreds of hours researching each firm, networking, and casing before landing a summer internship at McKinsey. Afterwards, I was a Consulting Career Fellows through the Career Management Center and a Case Parent for Wharton's Consulting Club. During that time, I coached and advised 50+ students, with many receiving MBB offers, and would love to help you navigate the recruiting process too. As a former academic tutor during my undergraduate years, I feel strongly about teaching and understand that each person requires customization to fit their needs. I look forward to working with you. I offer 2 primary services: 1. McKinsey/MBB specialist offering, including case interview prep (coached 20+ students to MBB offers), behavioral interview prep, resume review, and networking advice 2. MBA admissions process - I can help you with your game plan, resume, essay, LOR strategy, and interview prep

Why do I coach?

Coming from a first-generation, low-income background, I relied on mentors to help me navigate my way through the college admissions process as well as professional recruiting. I didn't know what consulting or banking was as an undergrad and am grateful to the individuals in my life who gave me the much needed advice and guidance. As such, I want to pass along everything that I have learned through this process!
