I like your commitment to marketing and to tech. As you write, be sure to explain WHY you need an MBA to continue in roles that appear to be remarkably similar to what you are already doing. What areas do you need to develop at Tuck? And what specific resources exist at Tuck to make it the best place for you?
Tuck will love your global experience and awareness. Be sure to show how you are ‘nice’ beyond just your YMCA volunteering. And connect your personal story as a first generation Amerian with your commitment to helping others. If you do this well, I think you will be heading to Hanover (one of my favorite places in the world!).
If I’ve misinterpreted anything in your profile, reach out for a consultation. Wishing you all the best on your MBA application journey.
