Description
Expert guidance from first application to accepted offer. A successful job search isn't defined by a single resume review or mock interview. It's a journey—one that often includes uncertainty, changing priorities, unexpected setbacks, and important decisions along the way. The Sherpa is my most comprehensive coaching package, designed for professionals who want a trusted advisor throughout the entire job search process. Rather than focusing on one stage of the journey, we'll work together from beginning to end. I'll help you clarify your career goals, develop your personal brand, optimize your resume and LinkedIn profile, prepare for interviews, navigate recruiter and hiring manager conversations, evaluate opportunities, negotiate offers, and make confident career decisions. As your search evolves, so will our coaching. Every engagement is tailored to your individual goals, target opportunities, and the challenges you encounter along the way. Whether you're preparing for an important interview, deciding between competing offers, navigating a difficult networking conversation, or simply looking for a trusted sounding board, I'll be there to provide practical guidance grounded in more than 20 years of Talent Acquisition leadership. One of the greatest benefits of this package is continuity. Instead of approaching each challenge in isolation, we'll build a cohesive strategy that keeps every part of your search aligned—from the story your resume tells, to the way you network, interview, negotiate, and ultimately choose your next opportunity. My role isn't simply to answer questions. It's to help you think strategically, avoid common pitfalls, maintain momentum, and approach each step of the process with greater clarity and confidence. If you're looking for a true coaching partnership through your journey, The Sherpa provides the personalized guidance, accountability, and insider perspective to help you navigate one of the most important transitions of your career.

Expert Recruiter & TA Leader with insights from the other side of the desk
Over the past twenty years, I've helped organizations hire thousands of professionals across virtually every corporate function—from recent graduates to senior executives. As a Talent Acquisition leader for global professional services organizations, I've spent my career evaluating candidates, advising hiring managers, leading recruiting teams, and making hiring decisions that shape organizations. That experience gives me a perspective most career coaches simply can't offer. I understand how hiring decisions are really made, what recruiters and hiring managers are looking for, why strong candidates sometimes fall short, and how to position yourself effectively in an increasingly competitive market. My coaching is practical, personalized, and rooted in real-world recruiting experience—not generic career advice. My goal isn't to help you become someone else—it's to help you discover, articulate, and communicate the best version of yourself. Whether you're pursuing your first professional opportunity, navigating a layoff, seeking a promotion, or making a major career pivot, I bring both the recruiter's perspective and the candidate's experience to every coaching conversation. Together, we'll build a strategy that helps you stand out for the right reasons and position yourself for long-term career success.
