About Ana

Ana Barros is a Harvard University alumna and MBA candidate at Northwestern University’s Kellogg School of Management. She spent eight years at Harvard in academic and student-facing roles, including three years as a Resident Tutor advising undergraduates through academic, personal, and professional decisions.

That experience shaped her advising philosophy: students produce their strongest work when they feel understood, supported, and thoughtfully guided. Ana works with a small number of students each cycle, helping them clarify their direction, develop compelling essays, and build coherent applications that reflect who they are.

Her students have been admitted to Harvard, Yale, MIT, UC Berkeley, Cornell, Northwestern, and other highly selective universities.
