* "After 15 years in finance, I felt completely burned out. About Face Career Coaching didn't just help me update my resume; they helped me identify a passion for sustainable urban planning I didn't even know I had. Their guidance through the transition, from skill mapping to interviewing for a completely new industry, was invaluable. I'm now thriving in a role I love, and I genuinely wake up excited for work."

About Face opened my eyes to how my leadership and problem-solving abilities were perfect for a project management role in tech. Their strategic pivot framework made the career change feel less like a leap of faith and more like a well-planned evolution. I landed an amazing role with a tech startup and haven't looked back."

I'm so grateful for their personalized approach."
