- Vice President and General Counsel of domestic subsidiary of ~$60 billion multinational
I have never met anybody like you.
“The initial CV you did for me closed the deal on landing my current role. It changed my perspective and my discussion. I used it as my talking point. You changed my views about how to talk about my qualifications. I was talking about impact, rather than technical qualifications. Few people have changed my perspective so quickly. I have never met anybody like you.“

“I wanted to reach out to thank Shauna for her assistance with my résumé [last month].
