Strategy & Ease
…In my experience it is rare to find someone who is committed to seeing the whole story, and who has the knowledge, wisdom and capability to work with all the different facets of a person and their journey. Sue is one of those people, and I would absolutely recommend her to anyone who wants to find more of themselves in their work, or simply progress to the next step in their career. I am confident that she would be an excellent partner in that process.

Pragmatic Visionary
As a seasoned career coach, there is a knowing and flow that comes from experience. I hold a deep respect for who you are, and am curious about your potential, what’s in your heart. At the same time, I have strategies to get things done.
Self-knowledge is vital. Having the clarity on your desires and why, the ability to articulate how you contribute are key skills for career success. We win people over when we speak in an authentic voice.
A career coach since 1991, I love working with creative people who seek fulfilling and rewarding work, be it a job, a promotion, or a solo practice.
In 2023-25, while serving part-time at a top global staffing firm, I coached 300+ individual contributors and leaders on mindset, job search, and internal advancement in tech, healthcare, education, and other business sectors.
As a career educator, I relished years of working with driven, bright minds at MIT, Dartmouth, Wellesley and Babson.
Versed in cross-cultural dynamics, I taught leadership and job search techniques at MIT Supply Chain Management Program. I built ecosystems to support career development for diverse communities (FGLI, women, LGBT+, BIPOC, Native American) at Dartmouth College.
Championing Your Cause
My superpower is infusing you with inspiration and positivity to tackle your career challenges. You step outside of your comfort zone, take bold steps, and grow in the process.
