Career and Life Coach
I am a credentialed Coach with extensive experience. I offer my skills and experience to assist you with your career and life issues. |
Throughout my professional career of over 30 years, I have demonstrated and sustained my long-term interest in helping others with life issues, including career decision-making, career management, job search, and job skills training. I continue to have a passion for assisting others with their life and career issues and new paths. I am keenly aware that our jobs and careers can have a direct impact on our lives -- income, happiness, self-esteem, personal relationships, and even the neighborhoods where we reside.
I understand the confusion and real difficulty that individuals have in finding someone to assist them with career and life issues -- someone who is seasoned, professional, credentialed, and reasonably priced. For this reason, I created Life Horizons and offer my skills and experience to you as an individual.
