You’ve been trying to
piece it all together:
⏰ Finding time to update your materials while juggling work, family, friends…life.
🙋🏽♀️ Figuring out how to stand out in a sea of qualified candidates.
👍🏽 Wondering if you’re presenting yourself in a way that resonates with the right decision-makers.
It’s a lot.
And if you’re honest…
You’re ready for a career strategy
that actually works—a plan that gets you:
✔️ Noticed
✔️ Interviews
✔️ And offers
That’s where I come in.
Whether you’re looking to land your next big opportunity,
sharpen your professional brand, or tackle your job search with a clear strategy,
you’ve come to the right place.
Hi! I’m Tessa —
As a Career Consultant and Job Search Strategist, I’m with you every step of the way.
I spent 10+ years in recruiting and talent —learning all the things so you don’t have to 😏— and now? I help you outsmart the job search process.
So if blowing time and energy on throwing out hundreds (or more) applications, not being paid what you know you deserve, and/or spinning your wheels in a same-old-same-old job when you’re ready and suited for so much more, isn’t your jam?
You’re in the right spot, babe.
Think of me as your own personal career and job strategy, Google. I help ambitious, mid-career women like you craft resumes that work, LinkedIn profiles that get noticed, and strategies that turn “maybe someday” into right now.
Whether you’re chasing a leadership role, ready to switch things up, or just want to feel more in control of your career path, I’m here to make it simpler, smarter, and way less stressful. [phew, right?!]
So, let’s make your next big move happen—together!
Your Career is Worth Investing In—And So AreYou.
