Too busy to write your resume?

Not getting the results you want?

You’ll get:

"Straight and to the point, Kathleen identifies improvement areas of your resume and cover letter that will make your unique self pop out at hiring managers. She infuses her suggestions with humor, understanding very well how frustrating it can be for experienced professionals to cram all the hats they've worn into an overarching expression that tells the employer how lucky they are to have you as an interested candidate. She lifts you up without ruffling your feathers, and then sets you free to soar above the crowd."

Get the real deal – with a wee bit of craziness included

  • Born on St. Patrick’s Day to an Irish and German family, I have always been blessed with the luck of the Irish and the pluck to persevere in challenging times.
  • I have been a library fanatic since I was a kid, and love reading. I’m jazzed by learning. I enjoy taking classes to keep up with the latest in the field – and sometimes just for fun. As an active member of the National Resume Writers Association, I’m committed to ongoing training and promoting excellence in our industry.
  • Friends are my lifeline. We go way back, and I continue to add newbies to the fold. I believe in living bolder and not putting experiences and adventures on hold. Life is short and precious, with no guarantees.
  • I have extensive business, marketing and sales experience. After a career in accounting, I moved on to hospitality. From there, I owned an HVAC business, and finally entered freelance writing full-time. I feel lucky to have had so many experiences, and to be able to press on and change careers. Each leap was one of faith, grit, and unbridled joy.
  • When I’m not writing, I can be found helping at job transition groups and my church. I also volunteer at Open Arms, a non-profit that delivers meals to people living with life-threatening illnesses.
  • I consider humor and optimism to be my super-powers. No matter what life throws at you, you’ve gotta stay hopeful and be able to laugh at the weird moments. Happiness matters.
Kathleen was a breath of fresh air to work with. I found her to be a collaborative partner employing her savvy wordsmithing abilities to retool my resume. I appreciated the work she did for me along with her spirited, caring and supportive nature. Give her a call, you’ll be glad you did!
