Hello,
What the above chronology doesn't indicate is that I am absolutely dedicated to my client's success and passionate about what I do (see my Linkedin recommendations)

I am forthright with my advice with a highly perceptive, out-of-the-box approach. I bring to the table a lifetime of career coaching expertise and recruiting experience from both sides of the desk.

I help companies select and engage the best fit for their positions. I guide high value talent to the right opportunities. My corporate and individual clients both say that working with me continues to have a significant impact on their business and career success .

In 2001, I founded and continue to moderate the WednesdayJobGroup, http://www.wednesdaynetwork.com, an 1600+ Silicon Valley networking e-group exclusively for high tech professionals.

My online newsletter, the Careerzine, reaches 5000+ professionals monthly, providing insights and observations on business, economic and employment trends. Click on the link at the top to join.

I have been frequently quoted or interviewed by PBS Radio, NPR's Marketplace, ABC, NBC, CBS local affiliates, Monster.com, the San Francisco Chronicle, the San Jose Mercury News, CBS Early Show and USA Today.

Po Bronson called me the "guru of Silicon Valley career counselors" in his New York Times best seller, "What Should I do with My LIfe?"
