  • Frances P. (Executive Marketing Leader)

I can’t say enough good things about working with Charla. We were coworkers earlier in my career; another former coworker recommended her to me to help me rework my resumé. Ultimately what I got was so much more. I wanted to work on my interviewing skills as well. Charla’s workshop has not only helped me hone my interviewing proficiency, but it has also helped my ability to think on my feet in any professional situation. I’d also like to share that I gained quite a bit of personal insight working with her. Seeing behind the scenes how someone like Charla has built her own business and brand gave me a great perspective on my goals and career path. She is an amazing teacher and coach. Her constructive criticism has been invaluable. But it’s up to you to practice and do the work to make the tools she offers stick.
