“Susan helped me get into HBS—and changed my life in the process.”

Before working with her, I was overwhelmed, unconfident, and unsure where to start. Susan brought structure, clarity, and reflection to every step. She didn’t just help me build a winning application—she helped me see that I deserved to be at a top school.

“Susan didn’t just help me get into Tuck—she helped me figure out where I’m going in life.”

Coming from a nontraditional background, I started this journey with no clear goals and very little confidence. Susan’s process gave me the structure, self-awareness, and storytelling clarity I needed to succeed—not just in MBA admissions, but beyond.

When I began the process of applying, I was very confident in my ability to succeed at business school but hesitant—especially as a nontraditional applicant with a history of leaving medical school—about whether I would be able to showcase those skills effectively. Susan not only guided me through the process of applying but opened up my ability to trust myself, showcase my abilities and accomplishments, and learn how to collaborate with others to the best of my strengths.
