WHAT I DO
Nothing motivates me more than taking complex material and synthesizing it down to create easy-to-understand frameworks. My clients receive clear processes and instructive guardrails to tease out relevant aspects of their story that helps them show up as a modern, adaptive leader. Strengths, values, motivators and key business results are used to help leaders position themselves as a “Business In A Business” or a unique solutions provider. The image below encapsulates the moving parts of the CareerVelocity System™, a comprehensive solution to address vital aspects of the career transition process.

THIS IS WHAT CLIENTS SAY ABOUT ME
Gina is a high-energy, knowledgeable sounding board who guided me in resetting and streamlining over 25 years of experience into a cohesive story. Even during the pandemic, she was able to personalize her coaching delivery and serve as my accountability partner while I was in career transition.
Gina helped me map out my career chronology in a way I could tell a streamlined, synthesized story so I could better communicate my career highlights. I have the right words to communicate my work style and key results and gained clarity about where my skills best fit in my target company.
Gina has been in the room with executive-level candidates during finalist presentations. She has worked with employers to recruit and place leaders. This experience informs her perspective about what hiring decision makers are looking for and ways to approach the interview process. As a coach and advisor, she can put you in the heads of those you are trying to influence and help your message land.
I needed help with how to package myself because it had been several decades since I’ve had to “look” for a job. Gina helped me internalize my strengths, what I was good at, and weave them into my storyline. There were so many good nuggets she helped me with prior to a panel interview – it was energizing and powerful!
Gina was really flexible. I couldn’t have asked for a better coach. She quickly tuned in and helped to support, advise, and build me up to believe I had more in me than I had imagined.
If you want to create your story and present your authentic self, I strongly recommend that you partner with Gina on your journey to your new opportunity.
Like many women, my career story is multi-faceted, and Gina helped me craft a compelling and concise way of telling it with impact. I found her approach to be personalized, not rushed, and timely. She offered focused guidance based on what I needed at that time without overwhelming me. The small tweaks enhanced my approach, opened doors, and helped me stand out during conversations that led to my next opportunity.
Gina takes an entirely different approach to the career transition process. The game-changer was the confidence Gina helped me regain by rediscovering my inner strengths. She helped me condense and shore up my resume, shape crisp messaging with powerful SOAR stories for interviews, and streamline my communication with decision-makers.
