Julie Norman

Chief of Staff & General Manager, MBA

As Chief of Staff & General Manager, MBA, Julie plays a central role in every aspect of Menlo Coaching’s admissions consulting services, particularly for business school. She is responsible for major commercial decisions on the MBA-front and leads HR, finance, and operations initiatives.

Julie often serves as one of the first points of contact for new applicants at Menlo Coaching. From initial outreach to the completion of onboarding, she is committed to guiding clients on successful MBA application journeys by matching them with coaches well-suited to their professional backgrounds and post-MBA goals.

Additionally, Julie leads efforts to continuously improve sales processes and support marketing campaigns. In all her roles, she maintains a focus on providing highly personal service.

Julie’s favorite part of Menlo Coaching is interacting with the diverse, phenomenal people who come through our doors.

The competitiveness of the MBA application process resonates with Julie: she comes from a classical music background, having received a B.A. in Voice Performance before graduating with her Master’s degree in Voice Performance and Literature from the Eastman School of Music. Her studies led her to NYC, and eventually, the Netherlands, where she performed and toured as a young artist and soloist.

Before she began at Menlo Coaching, she worked for Random House and Sony Music Entertainment, with a focus on Operations and Supply Chain. In her time with Sony, she helped the business team identify exciting new partners and helped build and maintain existing partner relationships.
