- AGC for one of the world's largest nonprofit foundations

“I read through the résumé we worked on and I’m really pleased with it. I’ve got to say, it just has a completely different feel to it than my original. It’s more human. I really like the framing of each job. It’s fantastic. And just really tells a story where my old résumé didn’t. I’m not used to thinking about accomplishments instead of tasks. In some ways, it’s very obvious, but there’s a subtlety to what you do that’s very elegant. I guess what I’m trying to say is that I’m happy. I’ve enjoyed our conversations—not only because they've been super productive and helpful—but also because like talking to you. It’s been a shot of confidence at time when work has been depressing.”
