Build the three foundational assets of a competitive top-tier candidacy: leadership and impact inventory, school alignment, and a compelling career vision.

How MBA Momentum works

Stop collecting tips. Start building a strategy.

Led by a former Dean of MBA Admissions, this community-based program provides the rigorous strategic foundation serious applicants need—a singular approach in the MBA admissions marketplace.

TIMELINE: The program starts on April 30, 2026 and includes six weeks of live, structured sessions led personally by a former Dean of MBA Admissions.

COMMITMENT: Plan for 2–3 hours per week. This includes our live strategy sessions and high-impact "pre-work" designed to build your foundational assets.

FORMAT: This is a live, interactive online program that draws on the collective power of a cohort of self-starters. You’ll see how other high-target candidates think, which sharpens your own competitive edge.

My manifesto as the Founder of My MBA Path is simple: My services are paid but my knowledge is free.

MBA Momentum is where that philosophy lives. I believe that the strategic foundations of a top-tier candidacy should be accessible to everyone. While my personalized consulting is a paid service, MBA Momentum is free. It is a rigorous, six-week community-based program designed to give you the strategic thinking that defines the most competitive MBA candidates. MBA Momentum is my commitment to sharing AdCom-level intelligence liberally and generously.

The Narrative Vault: Your Strategic Repository

Most applicants start by writing essays; MBA Momentum starts by building your system. You will leave with a Narrative Vault—a structured framework designed to extract your highest-impact stories, ensuring every essay you submit is both rigorous and compelling.

In other programs I was part of, I felt like we jumped straight into writing without that foundation. The structured questions and emphasis on introspection really pushed me to understand my story and my “why” first, which made everything else feel much more authentic and intentional.
