Communication is the #1 skill employers seek in new hires, but many candidates and employees are deficient. As a communications consultant, I help craft content as well as coach others on how to deliver clear, concise, compelling messages. Whether it\'s describing the value of your company to potential customers to positioning yourself as a valuable job candidate in a Zoom call, I can help you succeed. Working with businesses of all sizes, I help companies simplify messaging, clarify their brand, develop executive presentations, create sales pitches, improve web content, design marketing collateral, and other related activities. I also provide training and 1:1 coaching to improve interpersonal and/or public speaking skills.For individuals, I help each client define a personal brand, create a great resume, design an infographic-style career summary, enhance their communication style, improve their executive presence, and appear more comfortable in job interviews. Career coaching is something that started by request. With so many people losing their jobs for the first times in their life, I wanted to help people through times of frustration, lack of stimulation, stalled career progression, starting a new company, getting laid off, returning to work after an absence, and/or fixing lack of work-life balance. Resumes and just part of the equation. I have a diverse background, have led global teams of hundreds of people, so I\'ve been there, done that. And survived it. For any project that involve words and/or pictures, I can help.
