I've spent the last few years at the intersection of recruiting, mentorship, and career strategy, and I've seen what actually makes a difference for people early in their careers - especially in an internship. As a mentor in BYU's HR Program, I worked directly with students on internship strategy, target company lists, and the application process from start to finish. I've helped students land roles at EY and get into BYU's Accounting Program by focusing on two things: a resume that is clean and strategic, and a story that actually sounds like them. At Leland, I've recruited and hired both interns and coaches. I've sat on the other side of the table and I know what stands out in an interview. How you present yourself matters. I converted from intern to full-time employee while finishing my degree, and I did it by being intentional about how I showed up, took ownership, and made myself impossible to overlook. That is exactly what I help you figure out. Whether you are trying to land your first internship, break into a competitive program, or just figure out how to position yourself, I will help you build a strategy that is specific to you and actually works.
