What is career coaching?

Career coaching is a collaboration between client and coach. I’m here to provide you with the tools and skills to create a killer resume, nail the interview, and find fulfillment in your work. I’ll “teach you to fish” so you can manage your career development for years to come. Together, we’ll identify your career goals, develop a job search and/or career development strategy, and create an accountability plan.

How will you find me a job?

I won’t find you a job, but I’ll teach you how to! While a career coach may provide clients with suggested roles or opportunities, coaching provides clients with the skills and strategies to explore and identify the right job and employer. Why does this matter? Simply put, career coaching empowers clients to create and maintain a sustainable career plan by identifying what matters to them and what they’re great at. If we skip the exploration and discernment, chances are you’ll end up back at my desk feeling lost or frustrated. My goal is to set you up for years of career success by educating you on the job market, how to best leverage your skills, and how to tell your career story and take control.

Why should I use a career coach?

Career coaching can help you navigate career transitions, job loss, career exploration, preparing for interviews, negotiating job offers, getting a promotion, moving up in your career, developing new career skills, polishing your resume, writing a cover letter, building your professional network, and so much more! For many, a career coach is a guide who can help them come to conclusions and make sense of information. Whenever you’re making a big decision, especially about your job and livelihood, it can help to work with an objective source who’s an expert in their field.

What’s in it for me?

Career coaching is an investment in your career, which intersects with all of your life roles. Let’s make work “work for you”. I’ve helped career coaching clients in corporate and university settings for nearly a decade land dream jobs, make the best of current jobs, and reframe how they think about their jobs. I’ve helped hundreds of job seekers identify not only what skills they need to be successful in their career, but also helped them define what success means to them. I’ve maintained over 90% desired outcomes with early career talent to career pivoters over the years and am here to do the same for you.

Perhaps you’re seeking a target salary. Maybe you’re returning to work after a maternity or paternity leave or you’re looking for a healthier work-life balance and blend. Career coaching provides you with tangible tactics to achieve your goals again and again, throughout the course of your career.
