Working with Alterrell on my MBA essays was truly a game-changer. His feedback was insightful, strategic, and deeply personalized to my background and goals. Together, we refined my narrative, showcased my strengths, and crafted essays that were both cohesive and compelling. Alterrell brought clarity to the process and elevated every draft — I can’t recommend him highly enough!
Alterrell played a pivotal role in elevating my MBA essays. I had a clear vision for why I wanted to pursue business school, but Alterrell helped me transform my experiences and aspirations into a compelling and cohesive story. With his support, I was able to articulate my ideas with clarity and intention. I highly recommend Alterrell to anyone looking to refine their narrative and move beyond surface-level storytelling to create maximum impact.
Working with Alterrell was a game changer during my MBA application process. As a career pivoter with a humanities degree and no prior business experience, I wasn’t sure how to position myself. Alterrell helped me craft a strong narrative that enabled me to break through the thousands of applicants.
He provided solid advice and a clear strategy to think through target schools and figure out where I would have the most transformative experience. His interview prep was thorough and boosted my confidence, so I was ready for anything. He was also an amazing support throughout the whole journey, keeping me motivated and positive when things got stressful.
I absolutely loved my two years at Wharton. I learned new skills, met incredible friends, developed as a leader and had experiences I could not have dreamed about beforehand. Since graduating, I’ve gone on to have a successful career and am deeply enmeshed in the Wharton community. It is all thanks to Alterrell!
Alterell helped me build confidence around my application and acted as a trusted partner for my application. What I liked most about working with him was that he was a safe space to share my concerns and always left pumped up after our call. He was also very honest; but always kept my morale high during the process. I got into HBS!!
Thank you!!!
Alterrell is a great coach for enhancing the depth and impact of an applicant’s profile. He had a great ability to guide me through moments of stagnation and helped unearth profound meaning from seemingly mundane situations. With his assistance, I was able to articulate my thoughts with clarity and purpose. I recommend Alterrell for anyone needing to refine their story to transcend surface-level narratives for maximum impact.
Alterrell was critical in taking my MBA essays to the next level. While I knew why I wanted to go to business school, Alterrell helped me translate my experience and thoughts into a cohesive narrative. He not only edited he also pushed me to see my essays through the eyes of an admissions department, which ultimately helped me land at my dream school: Stanford GSB.
Alterrell will ask the right questions and provide the critical feedback to ensure your application reflects depth, drive, and the personal touch needed to stand out from other applicants.
