Instructor's Courses

My official titles are job search strategist, recruiter, career coach, and certified professional resume writer. But, as is the case with most business owners, I wear many hats. I'm an author, an educator, an entrepreneur and a cheerleader. Sometimes, I'm even a bit of a therapist. I also believe down to my core that fortune favors the bold, that it's better to ask for forgiveness than permission, and that -- done well -- personal branding can take you enormously far in your career and life. In fact, a big part of my job is teaching people how to define then communicate their brands in memorable, engaging and high personality ways, so that they will attract the right audiences with the right messages. Specialties include: job search strategy, career coaching, professional branding, resume writing, recruiting, LinkedIn makeovers, corporate outplacement, public speaking, on camera tutorials and social media marketing. I also just wrote a book (launching Jan. 2023!) - Do This, Not That: Careers. Learn more here: https://bit.ly/DoThisNotThatCareers
