Not yet knowing your GMAT score makes assessing your odds a bit difficult. So I am going to assume that you score at or near 680 at a school which has mean GMAT of 727 but a range between 630 and 780. Given that assumption, I think you are an ideal candidate for Kellogg. As a CPA handling major accounts at a top accounting firm, there should be no question that you can handle the quant in an MBA program. You clearly have been successful in your career and the fact that you created a side venture with an audience of more than 60,000 users shows your entrepreneurial prowess. An MBA from Kellogg would certainly allow you to achieve your goal to work in management …

An MBA from Kellogg would certainly allow you to achieve your goal to work in management consulting and to ultimately help you pivot to pursue a chief sustainability officer role in the fashion industry. It also goes without saying, but I will say it out loud nonetheless, that you have an advantage in being a Hispanic female. Kellogg and all the major business schools are trying very hard to reach gender parity and U.S. Hispanics in graduate business school are an under-represented group. For all these reasons, I think Kellogg should be very happy to have you and you would be very happy to be a member of the Kellogg network.
