Super numbers! Showing impact and growth at work will be really important, especially with the shorter length of experience. Are you also involved in activities outside of work? Any additional hobbies and interests?

What are your long term goals?

Numbers are pretty stellar, and your work experience, while limited, sounds promising. How are your ECs? Any interesting hobbies or involvement?

As to Alex's point about school selection, I could not agree more; if you want to land in San Francisco, I am puzzled as to why you haven't targeted Stanford and Haas, given that they are both excellent programs and are 'in market'. Another schools to consider would be Wharton, given their San Francisco campus (Wharton West) and the ability for MBA students to do a semester out there. Foster, UCLA, and USC all make sense too.
