In your career, there are no easy and straightforward answers about how you should land that job or to find a field that you're going to thrive in. As you go through your career, you will always be changing, developing, and learning. A career coach is someone who can go with you on that journey, offering a personalized, action-oriented, and non-judgmental perspective to help you reflect on and achieve your career goals, no matter where you want to go. A career coach can help you define your desired goals, help you articulate when you've achieved them, explore thinking, resources and strategies around making them happen, and reflect on the kind of person you want to become through achieving these goals. With expert knowledge in careers, I will guide you in exploring careers, developing your career, and using job search tools and frameworks. With a coaching mindset, I will help you develop your ability to be a self-aware, self-directed learner in your professional life. You won't always have a coach working with you, or even a professor, mentor, or friend looking out for you in the working world. How will you make career decisions? Set goals? Execute plans? Understand your own priorities? Our end goal will be for you to feel confident because you know you have what it takes to figure it out on your own.
