Testimonials
Because of my work with Melissa, I feel more powerful and impactful in everything that I do.
I learned to focus my energy on what matters most, increase my confidence so I’m consistently performing at a higher level. And, not surprisingly, I was promoted to lead the creation of a new department at my organization as a result.
Jonathan Pu, Director of Technical Project Management, Tech industry
Melissa is one of those ‘hard to find’ powerful coaches who brings emotional intelligence, positive energy, and strategic resources to every session.
With her help, I understood my direction better, mastered networking that felt natural, authentic, and highly effective, AND landed new international projects as a result!

Melissa's coaching was essential to navigating my transition to the private sector.
After over 15 years of Government service, I was at a career crossroads. She was incredibly insightful in navigating salary negotiations and helping me realize my worth. Two years later, I continue to consult Melissa for career coaching.

My Professional Highlights...
Outside of work
My first and most important ‘clients’ have been my 3 (now adult) kids who I am proud to say are successfully building careers and lives they love!
They sometimes joke that they were the only kids in school who had resumes in 6th grade!
When I’m not talking or reading about career development or the future of work, I am usually out hiking, doing yoga, traveling, or ballroom dancing with my husband of 33 years.
