Jessi has the ability to tailor her presentations to fit a multitude of audiences, so that complex topics can be understood by all, from beginners to experts.

Who is the training for? The training is applicable for many professionals including teachers, trainers, admission counselors, nonprofit executives, counselors and small business owners.

Why do service members respond to coaching? These men and women will face both exciting and often challenging situations dealing with integrating into the civilian sector – as professionals, as students, as spouses as entrepreneurs. Often they want and deserve to speak confidentially to a specialist about developing strategic and thoughtful plans to accomplish their dreams. Often they seek assistance from a trusted person for brainstorming and planning. The results are that they get to maximize new opportunities and continue to contribute to society.

“I am grateful to have had the opportunity to be coached. After spending 10 years in the military, I left with no confidence in myself or my future in the civilian world. Coaching helped me define my strengths, skills and goals. I figured out a college major, improved resume and LinkedIn profile, interview preparation, and chose a career field.” C.D. US Navy Veteran
