My name is Amanda and I’m glad you’re here

I spent 17+ years in the trenches of corporate and non profit leadership as an HR Business Partner and HR Manager. I have been the person "in the room" for thousands of talent reviews and salary negotiations but more importantly, I have been the Recruiter and Lead Interviewer. I have personally screened thousands of candidates and conducted the interviews that determine who gets the offer and who gets the "rejection" email. I know exactly what makes a resume stand out in an ATS, what a recruiter is looking for in the first 30 seconds, and the specific language that commands a higher salary.

Today, I combine that tactical recruitment "insider" knowledge with my work as a Leadership Coach for Cornell University Engineering. At Cornell, I coach the next generation of technical leaders on Core Values and Leadership training. In my private practice and my work with Randstad RiseSmart, I have leveraged this 360-degree perspective to help 280+ professionals and executives land high-impact roles.

My philosophy: Success shouldn't cost you your health.

As a Trauma-Informed and Certified Wellness Coach, I don’t just give you the "Recruiter’s Playbook" to land the job; I give you the "Wellness Framework" to survive the pressure. I bring an HR professionals strategy to your career and a coach’s heart to your well-being.

Whether we are auditing your market value or mastering your interview presence, we are building a career that is strategically positioned, high-earning, and sustainably yours.

Testimonials

  • Amanda was wonderful in helping me transition from a 20+ year career with one company into a new role very quickly. She was great in giving me pointers on the job search process which had changed drastically since the last time I had to do it. Excellent resource for career guidance!

    Cynthia N., VP Product and Supply Chain

  • At a time when the job market is being flooded by extremely qualified and talented candidates, I truly believe that the guidance and insight Amanda provided me are what allowed me to find a job much earlier than I expected. I was elated when I was finally able to tell her I accepted a role with a company in the same industry and I could tell it meant a great deal to her as well, knowing how much time she invests in people and how much she cares about their success. It really was a pleasure working with Amanda. She was an extremely valuable resource and I would most certainly recommend her to anyone that needs career counseling/coaching. I'm very happy and forever thankful we crossed paths!

    Travis B., Global Operations Support Supervisor

  • Amanda bridged the typical coach/mentor relationship, getting to know me personally, and helping with tactics on how to control my stress and anxiety. Amanda's ability to provide positive insights and impactful guidance was instrumental in helping me make decisions based on my career goals - and she is a big part of where I am now. I can confidently say that Amanda is one of the most positive, insightful, and impactful coaches I have ever worked with. I highly recommend Amanda to anyone who is looking for a career coach to help them navigate their own career transitions.
