Coaching and profile building

Practice with someone who has sat on the other side of the table.

I build your profile, coach your career, and run full role-play interviews until the hard questions feel familiar. One person, start to finish.

You do not need to be a candidate, and you do not need to be looking for a job right now. Coaching stands on its own.

Who this is for

Everyone, not just candidates.

  • Executives and senior leaders

    A confidential sounding board for a move, a step up, or a hard stretch.

  • College students and new graduates

    Direction, resume, LinkedIn, networking and interviewing, with a parent or guardian welcome to join the first call.

  • Career changers and mid-career professionals

    Telling a new story about work you have already done.

  • Anyone with an interview coming

    Full role play for the specific conversation ahead of you.

  • Teams and employers

    Coaching a company sponsors for a leader or a group.

Prices are negotiable How AI helps, and who decides

Four ways I can help

Pick one, or combine them.

  • Your profile, built with HALO

    Executives, operators and professionals

    I build your professional profile with you: your LinkedIn and your own one-page website, written from a real conversation about what you have done and what you want next. I use HALO, the AI workflow I built this site with, to draft quickly. Then I edit every line myself.

    • A working session to pull out your real results and your story
    • LinkedIn headline, About and experience, written in your voice
    • A one-page personal website that you own
    • A short list of plain-language answers a recruiter or AI search tool can quote
  • College student counseling

    Students and recent graduates

    One person who has spent thirty years on the hiring side walks you through the whole path: choosing a direction, a resume that reads clearly, a LinkedIn profile, how to network without feeling awkward, and how to interview.

    • Direction: what roles fit you and how to test them
    • Resume and LinkedIn built together in a live session
    • Networking scripts you can send tonight
    • Mock interviews with honest feedback
  • Executive coaching

    Directors through C-suite

    Private, confidential conversations for leaders making a move, stepping up, or working through a hard stretch. We focus on how you show up in the room, how you tell your story, and how you decide.

    • A confidential sounding board, one to one
    • Executive presence and how your story lands with a board or a founder
    • Preparing for the senior-level conversation, including offer and negotiation
    • Work on team conflict, which ties to my advisory practice
  • Interview coaching with full role play

    Anyone with an interview coming

    We rehearse the real thing. I play the recruiter, the hiring manager, the skeptical peer, or the full panel, and I stay in character until you can handle it. Then we step out and I tell you exactly what worked and what did not.

    • Recruiter screen, hiring manager, panel, and executive final-round role plays
    • Behavioral and case questions built from the actual job description
    • Tough-question drills: gaps, layoffs, why you are leaving, compensation
    • Written notes after every session, and you may record by mutual agreement

Full role play

I stay in character until you are ready.

Reading advice is not practice. We rehearse the real conversation, then step out and go through what worked and what did not.

  • Recruiter screen

    The first 30 minutes decide whether you move on. We make them count.

  • Hiring manager

    Depth on your work, your judgment and how you lead.

  • Skeptical panel

    Several people, different agendas, one of them hard to read.

  • Executive final round

    Vision, presence, and the questions nobody prepares you for.

  • Offer conversation

    How to respond, what to ask, and when to stay quiet.

What to expect

Three commitments about how this works.

  • One person

    You do not pick a coach from a list.

    You work with me, every session, start to finish.

  • Built from a conversation

    Your profile is not a template.

    I write it from a real conversation about your work, and I make no promise about jobs or results I cannot control.

  • Plain terms

    You know the process before you commit.

    Scope and price in writing before you pay, and a plain description of how the work runs.

How I keep this honest

Four rules I keep.

  • No job guarantees

    I can sharpen how you present yourself. I cannot promise an offer, and I will not.

  • Kept apart from recruiting

    Coaching is a separate service from my recruiting, and I keep it apart on purpose. I do not offer paid coaching to anyone who is a candidate in my recruiting, whether in a search now or in conversation about one. I do not introduce coaching clients to companies I am recruiting for, and I do not promise anyone a placement. Candidates never pay for placement, and my recruiting is paid by companies only. You can hire me for coaching without ever being a candidate, and coaching clients are not added to my recruiting pipeline.

  • Confidential

    What you tell me stays between us. If I use an AI tool with your material, I tell you which tool and what it will see first, and I do it only with your yes. See the privacy page for how information is handled.

  • Price before payment

    I agree the scope and price with you in writing before you pay anything.

Questions

Before you book.

HALO is the AI workflow I use to build things, including this site. It lets me draft your profile and website quickly from our conversation so more of our time goes to getting the story right. I edit everything by hand, and nothing is published without your approval.

No, and I do not want you to think it will. Coaching and recruiting are separate. Companies pay me for searches. I do not introduce coaching clients to the companies I recruit for, and I do not coach my recruiting candidates for pay.

No. A resume is one piece. We work on direction, resume, LinkedIn, networking and interviewing, and you practice the interviews with someone who has been on the other side of the table.

We pick the interview you are facing. I play the interviewer and stay in character, using your job description and your background. Afterward we step out and I give you direct feedback, then we run the hard answers again.

My prices are negotiable and depend on what you need: a single role play, a profile build, or a longer program. I agree the scope and price with you in writing before you pay. Book a call and I will tell you which fits.

Yes, if we both agree first. I do not keep or store recordings for you, so the recording is yours to keep.

Prices are negotiable. I will tell you honestly which service fits, and agree the price in writing before you pay.
