I am driven to help professionals succeed! I ran a local career center starting in 2012 – we were still recovering from the 2008 recession, and many professionals were adjusting to the new job market. During my tenure, I helped professionals transition to new industries/careers, get hired after long-term unemployment, and receive federal-funded training. I found my calling, and I knew I wanted to continue empowering clients to find their path too.
Then I had my first son – he had different plans for me. I reluctantly had to step down from my position. In my “spare” time as a new mother, I had former colleagues, friends, and family ask for my assistance in preparing Resumes, LinkedIn Profiles, and Interview Prep.
The catalyst for opening Anew Resume and Career Services came when I helped a former colleague named Harry. Harry shared with me his job search was approaching one year without any results.
I reworked Harry’s resume, and within a few weeks, he got an interview and accepted his job offer with a commiserate salary! That was my “Aha” moment. I began working on my business plan the next day!
