Looking for a polished and professional document but don’t know how to create it? I’ll overhaul your resume for an instant makeover that helps you move towards the next stage of the application process!

It is essential to have a great resume because it is one of the most important tools to help get you through the gatekeepers towards that in-person interview.
New research shows that 75% of resumes never get past an applicant tracking system (ATS) to a real person. This means that it’s more important than ever to submit a document with the right keywords based on the jobs you’re interested in applying to.
With this package, you’ll receive:
- A custom designed resume or CV, along with a one-on-one consultation to ensure that you receive a document that makes you stand out
- A custom designed cover letter template that shows the reader exactly why you want to work for the company and why they should hire you, along with a one-on-one consultation to give you the confidence you need to customize your cover letter for each job you apply to
- BONUS: Post interview thank you note guide
Make sure you stand out from the crowd and show hiring managers exactly why you’re the perfect candidate for the position.
You’ll put yourself on the right path towards landing interviews with your new and improved application package. All documents are delivered in PDF and Microsoft Word format.

Are you applying to a higher education program but struggling with writer’s block? Sometimes the hardest thing to write about is yourself. This causes applicants to submit a boring and blasé personal statement that won’t get noticed.

This package includes:
- A one-on-one consultation to figure out what message you want to show the school(s) and why you want to go there, along with revisions to ensure that you’re confident in the story you’re putting forward

Do you want to equip your team with insight on personal branding and how to present the best version of themselves?
Book a workshop or lecture!
One of the best ways to support impacted employees during a RIF or layoff is to provide meaningful career support services throughout the transition to help individuals set themselves up to find their next opportunity. When you have a job, maintaining an updated LinkedIn profile and resume is usually the last thing on your mind. Amidst unexpected change, it can be stressful to figure out what to do and where to start.
I specialize in helping people articulate their value and presenting the best version of themselves. It’s hard to write about yourself and people always sell themselves short by undervaluing their success. I work to help build confidence, empower people to showcase their talents and abilities, and help put their best foot forward in their job search.
This hour long personal talent brand workshop (40 mins presentation, 20 mins Q&A) is designed specifically for employees who have been recently impacted by a RIF. I’ll share best practices for updating LinkedIn profiles, resumes, cover letters, and tips for personal branding.
- I’ll cover topics like how to quantify your achievements, how to write eye-catching LinkedIn headlines that stand out and pop up in recruiter searches, as well as how to best leverage your network, and stay on people’s radar.
- My workshop delivers actionable takeaways including next steps to get people started with optimizing their LinkedIn profile to its fullest potential, building compelling content that highlights their achievements, as well messaging templates for cold outreach on LinkedIn (connection requests, introductions, etc.).
- I’ll help people craft their “ask” when connections offer a general “how can I help?” This includes roles they’d be a good match for, start dates, position must-haves, as well as connections and introductions someone can make.
- Option to include a guide for non-impacted employees on how to best support their impacted colleagues by advocating and providing visibility within their own networks.
TOTAL PRICE: Pricing based on workshop scope and location
Are you a looking to expand your horizons with other media sources or collaborators? This starts with a good media kit.
I’ll build you a custom designed media kit that highlights your key metrics and unique value offerings on an easy to distribute, branded flyer.
Your customized media kit will be designed with your brand colors, fonts, and verbiage so it’s aligned with any current marketing collateral you have.
In your media kit, you’ll find:
- A branding/media pitch developed in line with brand tone to attract your target audience
- A personal bio that highlights your unique value and why someone should hire you
- Updated metrics and facts about your brand to intrigue your readers and excite them about your product or service offerings
Make sure you stand out from the crowd and show brands and collaborators exactly why they should work with you! All documents are delivered in PDF and Microsoft Word format.
