Leila Moro

Hi, I’m Leila Moro, Stanford Graduate School of Business MBA with consulting and investment experience.

I’m an MBA Admissions Counselor at Stratus.

Let’s Talk!  

Academic Background

  • Georgetown University McDonough School of Business, BSBA, Finance and International Business
  • Stanford Graduate School of Business, MBA, Global Management

Experience

Admissions Committee

I am an alumni interviewer for Georgetown’s undergraduate program, including the undergraduate program at the McDonough School of Business.

Post-MBA

My experience includes strategy consulting for McKinsey & Company as well as independently for PE- and VC-backed tech, beauty, travel, and hospitality clients. I have also delved deeply into operations, leading Expedia Group’s corporate travel and media sales teams’ international expansion efforts into Latin America, in addition to taking on interim COO work.

Pre-MBA

Before earning my MBA, I worked in finance, both in asset management for Merrill Lynch and in sales and trading for Goldman Sachs.

We’ll Work Well Together If…

  • You are interested in a career in consulting, investments, a smaller PE-backed company, or the travel industry. I have recruited and interviewed candidates for McKinsey & Company, Goldman Sachs, the Expedia Group, and Private Equity.
  • You currently live, have lived, or would like to live abroad. I have worked in the United States, Latin America, Caribbean, the Middle East, and Europe. I speak multiple languages, am raising bilingual children, and spend time abroad each year.
  • You are open to being vulnerable and sharing your true self. I really enjoy helping candidates leverage their strengths as well as their weaknesses and life experiences to demonstrate their personal growth, fortitude, and potential in their MBA applications.
  • You enjoy live music, outdoor adventures, traveling, exploring new hobbies, and farm-to-table dinners.
