Getting your dream job starts with the perfect resume. Let's work together to show employers that you possess the skills, capabilities and qualities needed to be a great fit.
I'm a U.S. native based in Addis Ababa, Ethiopia. I have a B.A. degree from Brown University and five years of experience as a copywriter, public relations specialist, and content editor. I have worked at an agency then at a big multinational over the last few years, but have left that work to start my own business and freelance.
During my time with both the agency and corporation, I have helped a number of businesses and people tell their stories more clearly and powerfully in English through their resumes, bios, websites, brochures, social media, press releases, and white papers.
I have experience in developing and transforming resumes so that they communicate the value a candidate is able to bring to a role or organization. My approach involves gathering information on targeted roles and relevant keywords, identifying matches in skills and experience, and communicating those overlaps to demonstrate how your actions have delivered results.
I'm detail-oriented, but also bring a creative lens to all that I do. I seek to help you inspire and achieve through persuasive storytelling.
My working hours are flexible and it's important to me to put in the time to help you meet (or beat!) your deadlines.

𝐄𝐱𝐞𝐜𝐮𝐭𝐢𝐯𝐞 𝐂𝐚𝐫𝐞𝐞𝐫 𝐒𝐭𝐫𝐚𝐭𝐞𝐠𝐢𝐬𝐭 | 𝐏𝐨𝐬𝐢𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧𝐢𝐧𝐠, 𝐓𝐫𝐚𝐧𝐬𝐢𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧 & 𝐋𝐞𝐚𝐝𝐞𝐫𝐬𝐡𝐢𝐩 𝐀𝐝𝐯𝐢𝐬𝐨𝐫𝐲
When experienced leaders struggle to gain traction, it is rarely because they lack capability. It is because their scope, authority, and impact are not positioned strategically for the market they are entering.
I work with senior government professionals, military officers, and corporate leaders navigating high-stakes career transitions or advancement into director-level roles. Whether you are leaving service, stepping out of federal leadership, or preparing for your next executive move, your experience carries weight. The challenge is ensuring the market recognizes it.
As a Certified Professional Resume Writer and Board-Certified Career Coach, I bring structure, discipline, and strategic clarity to complex transitions. My background includes over 20 years teaching Business and Medical English globally and translating complex professional narratives for international organizations, including the French government and the World Bank. I specialize in helping leaders articulate complex experience clearly, confidently, and persuasively in American business language.
Today, my work centers on strategic positioning, not formatting.
What I Deliver
🔹 𝐄𝐱𝐞𝐜𝐮𝐭𝐢𝐯𝐞 𝐑𝐞𝐬𝐮𝐦𝐞 𝐃𝐞𝐯𝐞𝐥𝐨𝐩𝐦𝐞𝐧𝐭
Strategic, ATS-aligned resumes structured around scope, scale, leadership authority, and measurable impact. Multiple targeted versions available for complex transitions. Includes SES resume development and ECQ narrative writing for federal executive candidates.
🔹 𝐋𝐢𝐧𝐤𝐞𝐝𝐈𝐧 𝐄𝐱𝐞𝐜𝐮𝐭𝐢𝐯𝐞 𝐏𝐨𝐬𝐢𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧𝐢𝐧𝐠
Clear narrative alignment, keyword optimization, and leadership branding designed to increase recruiter visibility and executive credibility.
🔹 𝐈𝐧𝐭𝐞𝐫𝐯𝐢𝐞𝐰 & 𝐋𝐞𝐚𝐝𝐞𝐫𝐬𝐡𝐢𝐩 𝐍𝐚𝐫𝐫𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐯𝐞 𝐀𝐝𝐯𝐢𝐬𝐨𝐫𝐲
Structured mock interviews and behavioral frameworks that refine executive presence, stakeholder communication, and value articulation.
🔹 𝐂𝐚𝐫𝐞𝐞𝐫 𝐑𝐞𝐩𝐨𝐬𝐢𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐒𝐭𝐫𝐚𝐭𝐞𝐠𝐲
Disciplined advisory focused on direction, risk evaluation, and defined next-step positioning for leaders preparing for meaningful advancement.
🔹 𝐖𝐨𝐫𝐤-𝐋𝐢𝐟𝐞 & 𝐋𝐞𝐚𝐝𝐞𝐫𝐬𝐡𝐢𝐩 𝐀𝐥𝐢𝐠𝐧𝐦𝐞𝐧𝐭 𝐂𝐨𝐚𝐜𝐡𝐢𝐧𝐠
Strategic coaching grounded in Positive Psychology and NLP to support executive clarity, sustainable performance, and high-stakes decision-making.
🔹 🔸𝐄𝐧𝐠𝐚𝐠𝐞𝐦𝐞𝐧𝐭 𝐒𝐭𝐫𝐮𝐜𝐭𝐮𝐫𝐞🔹 🔸
I work with leaders at multiple levels of transition. Executive engagements operate at a different depth, scope, and strategic rigor.
Senior-level clients (GS-13+, field-grade officers, directors, enterprise leaders) begin with a strategic advisory session focused on positioning, decision authority, scope of impact, and market alignment. These engagements focus on executive narrative, decision authority, and market positioning — not resume formatting.
Foundational resume and interview services remain available for emerging and mid-level professionals seeking tactical job search support.
𝐒𝐩𝐞𝐜𝐢𝐚𝐥 𝐅𝐨𝐜𝐮𝐬 𝐀𝐫𝐞𝐚𝐬
🔹 𝐌𝐢𝐥𝐢𝐭𝐚𝐫𝐲 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐟𝐞𝐝𝐞𝐫𝐚𝐥-𝐭𝐨-𝐩𝐫𝐢𝐯𝐚𝐭𝐞-𝐬𝐞𝐜𝐭𝐨𝐫 𝐭𝐫𝐚𝐧𝐬𝐢𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧𝐬
🔸 𝐆𝐒-𝟏𝟑+ 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐟𝐢𝐞𝐥𝐝-𝐠𝐫𝐚𝐝𝐞 𝐨𝐟𝐟𝐢𝐜𝐞𝐫 𝐫𝐞𝐩𝐨𝐬𝐢𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧𝐢𝐧𝐠
🔹 𝐃𝐢𝐫𝐞𝐜𝐭𝐨𝐫-𝐥𝐞𝐯𝐞𝐥 𝐜𝐨𝐫𝐩𝐨𝐫𝐚𝐭𝐞 𝐚𝐝𝐯𝐚𝐧𝐜𝐞𝐦𝐞𝐧𝐭
🔸 𝐓𝐞𝐜𝐡𝐧𝐢𝐜𝐚𝐥 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐨𝐩𝐞𝐫𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧𝐚𝐥 𝐥𝐞𝐚𝐝𝐞𝐫𝐬𝐡𝐢𝐩 𝐫𝐨𝐥𝐞𝐬
🔹 𝐂𝐨𝐦𝐩𝐥𝐞𝐱 𝐜𝐚𝐫𝐞𝐞𝐫 𝐩𝐢𝐯𝐨𝐭𝐬 𝐫𝐞𝐪𝐮𝐢𝐫𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐧𝐚𝐫𝐫𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐯𝐞 𝐜𝐥𝐚𝐫𝐢𝐭𝐲
Most of my clients are not underqualified.
They are overqualified and underpositioned.
They often manage teams, budgets, operations, and high-stakes programs. Yet their experience becomes diluted into generic summaries that fail to reflect enterprise impact.
I help leaders structure their experience around measurable results, decision authority, and organizational influence — and align resume, LinkedIn, and interview messaging into one coherent market position.
This is not generic job search advice.
It is structured, strategic advisory for serious transitions.
If you are preparing for a meaningful leadership move and want positioning that reflects the level at which you operate, I invite you to connect.
