My father hated his job but stayed for 30 years to support our family, even though it made him sick and angry. He could have done a million other things, but he couldn’t see the options. Instead, he was miserable until the day he up and quit. 

The rest of the family suffered, too. 

My first job was toxic and “not me." I quit without notice.

Jolt Your Career 

I founded Jolt Your Career because I believe everyone deserves professional success, financial stability, and personal fulfillment. Frustrated by the red tape of Department of Labor policies and the constraints of staffing agency culture, I set out to make a direct impact on people’s careers. What began as a resume-writing firm has since evolved into a comprehensive consultancy. Today, Jolt Your Career empowers job seekers with services ranging from resume writing to salary negotiation, while also providing tailored consulting for corporations and startups, including talent acquisition strategies and fractional leadership expertise.

The JYC team creates modern resumes that easily navigate through the online applicant process (ATS), check off all the boxes for recruiters, and impress hiring managers so you land more interviews.

After almost a decade in the DOL-backed nonprofit career development sector, I was enticed into recruiting. Among over 20 new hires, I was the first to achieve 

➟ Full-cycle recruitment placement goals.
➟ Placed 32 candidates across diverse industries including aerospace, engineering, scientific, clinical, commercial, skilled trades, and professional services—all within just three months.  

After three months of training and three months of exceeding, I soon realized that my potential to impact the world extended beyond traditional recruiting. This led to the founding of Jolt Your Career, where I could leverage my skills and passion on a larger scale. 

Shout out to all the recruiters out there balancing client demands with the candidate experience—it’s a tough job, and your efforts don't go unnoticed!

Recruiter

Business and Career Services, Inc.

Specializing in finding back doors into traditional hiring methods, I was dedicated to empowering those often overlooked by standard recruitment processes. My approach was centered on transforming the "unhirable" into sought-after candidates through upskilling grants and facilitating critical corporate introductions that enabled quick, effective career transitions.

I had the privilege of supporting a diverse range of professionals, including:

➟ Individuals impacted by Reductions in Force (RIFs)
➟ People experiencing poverty
➟ Unemployed job seekers
➟ Veterans transitioning to civilian roles

Everyone deserves quality employment, and when the right incentives are in place, amazing things can happen within the community.
