I came to Chip close to the Kellogg MBA deadline. I needed help reviewing my essays quickly. One of my essays was very weak when we first started. He helped me brainstorm to rewrite the essay, while helping make my other essay stronger. Chip went far beyond expectations. He took the time to really understand my story and make sure I conveyed the strongest story possible. He took my essays from poor to excellent. I highly recommend Chip.

Chas was the best coach I worked with on essays! He provided direct, clear feedback that helped me tell my story. He is particularly good at structuring essays in the most effective way. I'm so glad I had the opportunity to work him, and I would recommend him to anyone preparing MBA applications.

Sarah helped me a lot in crafting and editing my MBA essays, especially in helping me, an international applicant, find the right phrases to express my ideas. She provided constructive and insightful feedback to ensure that the story I wanted to tell was strong and cohesive. She was also very responsive and accommodating as she was happy to help me look through some last minute changes I'd made to my essays a few days before the deadline. I also really appreciate that her packages are affordable. Enjoyed working with and would recommend her to anyone looking for some guidance with essay writing!

I was in the last minute of submitting my MBA applications. I am grateful for Sarah's help in brainstorming my application strategy and for her thorough review of all the elements of my applications on a tight schedule. Without her, I would not have been able to complete my applications. Thank you again, Sarah!

Drake was an amazing coach! I came to him wanting an outside perspective/coaching to sustain my existing network of support. He was flexible with that arrangement and didn't try to push any preset packages, but was willing to help out on a pay-per-hour basis. Drake provided great insights in a timely manner. His feedback and guidance were well worth their weight in gold. More than just submitting good applications, Drake helped me to introspect in a way that will benefit me for years to come. Would definitely recommend Drake to anyone looking for coaching!

Chip is truly the King of Kellogg! He was skilled at reframing my narritave so that it became cohesive and aligned with the school’s culture. He really took time to understand my past expereince and gave out good recommendations on areas to highlight more. When it comes to the actual essays fine tuning, Chip would go to the extra miles and support as many iterations as needed. He was very easy to reach and had been a wonderful support throughout the process. If you already have a draft and feel like something are missing, but not quite sure on how to improve. I recommend you to reach out to Chip.

Tanner's suggestions on my package were super innovative and different from what I heard from my surroundings, which was very helpful for me to see it from a new angle. I had been struggling with my resume and essays after writing by myself again and again....Thanks to Tanner, the package was refreshed to the next level! You definitely will get a lot of "Aha!" moments from Tanner's suggestions and ideas :)

Nina was absolutely incredible. I reached out two weeks ahead of the deadline. Nina was super responsive and helped me craft a much better essay than I wrote with more expensive admissions consultants. Honestly couldn't recommend her enough.

With a little concern about whether Leland will be helpful regarding my master's application in the environmental field, I chose Sarah because of her background in sustainability. And Sarah definitely eliminated all of my concerns with professional help and advice on my application essays. She is also very personable and patient, providing great suggestions on connecting my story with the professional goal, showing myself in the most effective way, and making grammar edits. Highly recommend her and would love to work with her again!

Erik helped me with CV polishing, and even created a brand-new resume that was much more appealing and impressive. Erik's insights and suggestions on how to better structure a CV were very sharp to the point, and he knew how to change the game! I had been stuck in my CV after overwriting by myself before- Thanks to Erik - it was improved to the next level!
