"Joy and understanding!"

“Petia is an excellent consultant. I come from an unusual professional background for an MBA candidate and knew I needed help navigating my applications — specifically to understand the differences in what each of my programs looks for in an application and how to best translate my resume into something understood by my schools. 

After interviewing multiple people to help me along my MBA journey, feeling discouraged, I was sent to Petia and everything clicked. She understood me! Her experience as a dean of admissions, cultural interests, and passion for storytelling fueled a professional and personal relationship that made the post-GMAT application process a happy experience. 

Petia pushed me on my essays, gave me a timeline to work against, and challenged me to iterate stronger and stronger work. It is because of her that I felt I submitted my strongest application possible, every time.”
