I help jobseekers rediscover their value...and land roles they actually want.

For 20+ years, I’ve been on the other side of the hiring table: recruiting, interviewing, and working directly with hiring managers. I know what gets noticed, what gets ignored, and how decisions are really made. That’s what makes me different: I don’t guess what recruiters want; I *am* a recruiter, and I’ve gotten people hired in every kind of market...including this one.

Whether you’re struggling to get interviews, making a pivot, or trying to bounce back after a layoff, I’ll give you straightforward strategy and tools that actually work: resumes that highlight your impact, LinkedIn profiles that get found, and job search strategies that cut through the noise.
