Bio
Jennifer Cuellar, MBA
As graduation nears, I had the opportunity to work with Melissa on creating a new, fresh, and eye-catching resume. In a world where there is an abundance, where some would even say OVER abundance of qualified applicants, it is imperative that one stands out against the masses. Melissa constructed a resume that highlights not only my past experiences, but who I am as a person and that's what companies are interested in. Melissa took the time to get to know the real me, what drives me as an employee, and communicated this effectively and beautifully in a new resume. I definitely recommend Melissa to anyone who is looking to refresh their resume, their career, and their future! If you would like to speak to me directly more in-depth about my experience, please don't hesitate to connect.

I’ve worked with Melissa on several different projects, first as a partner, then as a client and she is by far one of the kindest, most empathetic person I have ever met. She will always go the extra mile and fight for what is right for her friends and those she builds strong relationships with, which is all of her clients. In regards to her work, I absolutely love the resume she assisted me with. It is beautiful and eye catching while highlighting important milestones in my career. I am very happy to have had her help me build out a new resume.

I have known Melissa since 2013 and have been impressed with her since day ONE when she was a business mentor at an Entrepeneurship course. Recently, I was downsized from my job, like so many others, due to the COVID economy, and I required some expert help to refresh my resume' assistance. Due to her many years of close work with talent experts at some of the world's foremost companies, and her exceptional savvy, she was able to entirely re-work my lengthy CV into a single page, hard-hitting, infographic style document that is getting radically improved interest. I can't thank her enough and you truly must contact her for her services in this area. Amazing results! Go "ACTIVATE" your potential!
