Communicate with Confidence

From Interviews to High-Stakes Moments

Coaching for early- and mid-career professionals who want to speak with clarity, presence, and purpose.

You’ve worked hard to get where you are. But now the stakes are higher - and how you communicate can make or break your next opportunity.

Whether you're preparing for a competitive job interview, speaking up in meetings, giving a high-pressure presentation, or managing a tricky one-on-one with your manager, your message matters. And yet, no one really teaches you how to communicate with clarity, presence, and purpose.

That’s where I come in.

I help early- and mid-career professionals become more confident, persuasive communicators - starting with interviews and extending into every high-stakes moment that follows. My coaching is strategic, supportive, and highly personalized. Together, we’ll strengthen your messaging, refine your delivery, and build the skills you need to lead the room - not just sit in it.

Interview Coaching

You’ve done the work - now it’s time to tell your story. In these tailored one-on-one sessions, we’ll focus on your specific needs and challenges. Together, we’ll uncover your “origin story” and shape it into a clear, compelling narrative that is authentic and memorable.

Depending on your goals, we’ll walk through one or more mock interviews designed around the roles or industries you’re targeting. You’ll get clear, candid, and actionable feedback on what’s working, what’s not, and how to bring more strategy, presence, and confidence to every response.

Outcomes:

  • Stronger, more persuasive answers

  • Clear articulation of your strengths

  • Tools to help you stay calm and focused, even during tough questions

Communication Coaching

You got the job - now you need to show you belong there. In these personalized sessions, we’ll focus on the real communication challenges that early career professionals face: speaking up in meetings, presenting ideas clearly, writing confidently, and navigating conversations with managers and teams.

Whether you are new to the workplace, or looking to level up fast, we’ll build the skills and strategies that help you sound as smart, capable, and prepared as you actually are.

Outcomes:

  • Clearer thinking and communication in meetings and 1:1s

  • Greater confidence speaking to peers, managers, and senior leaders

  • A communication toolkit you can rely on throughout your career

College/Grad School Interview Coaching

For many students, a college interview is the first time you’re asked to talk seriously about who you are and why you matter. That can feel intimidating.

I work with high school juniors and seniors to build confidence, clarify your “origin story”, and practice the kinds of questions that allow you to show up authentically and compellingly. This isn’t about rehearsed answers - it’s about helping you reflect, speak thoughtfully, and make a connection.

Outcomes:

  • A stronger sense of what makes you unique - and how to express that

  • Practice answering common and challenging interview questions

  • The confidence to engage in real conversation, not recite a script
