After having been with one employer for over ten years, I needed a change but was concerned about the marketability of my experience and skills. Launching a job search after so long was a daunting task but Joanne simplified the process so that I didn't even realize I had launched my job search. Shortly thereafter, the perfect job opportunity was presented to me. I can't express enough the value of my experience working with Joanne. It has been an education that I will recall as I progress through my career. My time with Joanne was an investment in my future and worth every penny. Samantha K. Berkeley, CA |

I had the wonderful opportunity to work with Joanne as a career coach during a time when I was both switching career paths and hoping to move from the east coast to the Bay Area. Without her help, I doubt that I would now be working at such a fantastic company in San Francisco. Thank you Joanne! Sydney C. San Francisco, CA |

Joanne spent hours with me on the phone from across the country. She is a caring, knowledgeable, and patient career coach with a true, deep desire to help her clients. I highly recommend her to anyone looking to make a big career change or simply re-write a resume. Gillian M. Arlington, Virginia |

There I sat, a 56-year-old woman, frustrated and still trying to figure out what I wanted to be when I grew up. Joanne helped me believe in myself. I had been creating mosaic art for years, but never imagined that I would be able to translate that passion into a new career. Joanne helped me make this possible. Jill R. Oakland, CA |

Joanne has worked with me as both a recruiter and an executive coach. She is extremely personable, with a talent for listening and understanding a situation and suggesting insightful solutions. She is an optimistic person who can deliver realistic advice and provide strong encouragement to follow through. I recommend her highly. Mark C. San Francisco, CA |

I connected with Joanne during my first job search in over 15 years. Joanne helped bring structure to the search and more importantly, helped me focus on finding the RIGHT job for me and my family. I am not a natural networker--Joanne's constant encouragement and advice drove me to reach beyond my comfort level. Her support and advice gave me the confidence to say no to a role that was 100% not right for me at a time where the idea of any job was seductive. I highly recommend Joanne if you are looking to bring insight and structure to your job search. Mark C. Trumbull, Connecticut |

I recently worked with Joanne as part of the preparation to apply to MBA programs. Similarities between career coaching and MBA application prep abound, and working with Joanne was an excellent learning experience. Our coaching sessions were instrumental as I thought through why I really wanted to take the next step in my career and pursue an MBA. Joanne is thoughtful, encouraging, and a consummate professional. I achieved the best possible result in my MBA application process and will be starting at my dream school this fall. I would recommend working with Joanne without hesitation. Gordon K. Napa, CA |

I engaged Joanne’s services at a time when I was going in circles for months, unable and afraid to make decisions about my career and life. As a sole proprietor of a business that is at times most isolating, I was stuck. Joanne’s compassionate and positive nature allowed me to pour my heart out with all my jumbled thoughts and feelings, never once making me feel like I was sharing dumb thoughts. With her help, I was able to comfortably get back on track toward doing what I finally knew was the right choice. Cynthia S. San Francisco, CA |
