Bio
Michelle Anderson
I've known Carol for over 10 years and value her professionalism, intelligence, and warm personality. Most recently I hired her for career coaching due to a layoff. While I'm an HR professional myself, I wanted someone with focused expertise to help me navigate a new situation. Carol was an extreme blessing during this time. She was there every step of the way, first with using StrengthsFinder to identify my strengths and translating that into career goals, challenging me to think differently and seek a bigger picture. Carol created an amazing LinkedIn page and resume for me with her gift in writing, and navigated my job search process and negotiating an offer with me. I've trusted Carol with my finances early in our working relationship and with my career more recently, and in both cases she delivered more than I ever hoped.
Michelle Swiecichowski
A few years ago, when I had just graduated from college and was working on entering the workforce, I worked with Carol to answer the big question, "What do I want do with my career?". We worked from the bottom up, beginning with strengths identification, interest areas, and moved to resume building and interview coaching. With Carol's help I was able to apply to and land a job at a start up in Los Angeles and have since used the skills she taught me to grow within my career at this organization! Carol was patient, professional, and a wealth of knowledge! I strongly recommend that anyone trying to identify "Where do I go from here?" reach out to Carol for guidance! You will not be disappointed!
