Navigate Career Transitions with a Former Fortune 500 HR Leader
I help experienced professionals and emerging leaders make smarter career moves, strengthen their leadership presence, and navigate layoffs, pivots, promotions, and senior-level job searches with clarity, confidence, and strategy. My perspective is different because I have sat on both sides of the table. For more than 25 years, I led HR, employee relations, labor relations, and talent work inside major organizations including Cognizant, Barclays, Merck, Honeywell, and Warner Music Group. I have supported hiring decisions, reorganizations, workforce reductions, leadership transitions, manager coaching, executive advisory work, and high-stakes employee situations. I know how companies think, how leaders are evaluated, how decisions get made, and why talented professionals often get overlooked or under-positioned. I have also personally experienced four layoffs. That combination is why I founded Exit to Excel. I help mid-career and senior professionals stop guessing their way through career decisions and start moving with a stronger strategy. My coaching blends HR insider perspective, leadership advisory experience, practical career strategy, and AI-powered tools to help clients clarify their value, strengthen their executive presence, prepare for interviews, navigate workplace challenges, lead with more confidence, and pursue roles that align with their experience and goals. My clients are often accomplished professionals, managers, and leaders who have strong experience but are struggling to communicate their value, position themselves for advancement, lead through change, or adjust to how work and hiring have changed. I help them move from scattered and reactive to focused, confident, and ready to play to win.
