Thanks for sharing your profile. Really interesting and unique profile that should garner some strong interest from MBA programs. Your leaderships and ECs in particular stand out and align well with your good work experience. Your UG GPA is pretty low which will be a concern but if you can land in the range provided for your GMAT you should have a chance at Kellogg
