Client Testimonials
Liz R.
Office Manager
"I am thrilled to recommend Marcy. As a Career Coach, she played a pivotal role in my professional journey. After a decade-long hiatus dedicated to raising my children, I approached Marcy for guidance in re-entering the workforce. From our very first meeting, Marcy's dedication and expertise were evident.
Marcy provided unwavering support and guidance throughout the job search process. She not only helped me refine my resume and interview skills but also boosted my confidence immensely. Marcy was always available to answer my questions, calm my nerves and offer invaluable advice. Her genuine care made every interaction productive and reassuring.
​
Thanks to Marcy's strategic insights and encouragement, I successfully secured a new position in four months. Her personalized coaching and proactive support truly made all the difference in my transition back to the professional world. I cannot recommend Marcy enough for anyone seeking expert career guidance and a supportive partner in achieving their career goals."
Sr. Julie F.
Program Director
“For the past five years, Marcy has worked with the St. Joseph Worker Program in Los Ángeles. Through her knowledge of, experience with, and thoughtful presentation of the CliftonStrengths assessment, Marcy has made an invaluable contribution to the ongoing growth and formation of young women. Because of her own commitment to growing in self-awareness and using her own strengths, she brings a spirit of genuineness and warmth to every group.
Marcy has a unique way of connecting with each person in the group and the St. Joseph Workers have experienced her as a trustworthy and gifted listener. Marcy is personable and prepared. Her presentations are thorough and yet she is flexible in working with meeting a group’s needs. We are grateful for Marcy’s contribution to the St. Joseph Worker Program each year! We look forward to working with her again!”
Francisco Z.
Education Director
"Our college counselors work with over 200 current and former foster youth who are attending colleges and universities across the country. We turned to Marcy to help our counselors develop the confidence and skills to talk to our scholars about career exploration and development. I was so happy to find that Marcy was understanding, flexible and accommodating. She was able to craft a training that was specific to the needs of our counselors and the youth we serve. Our counselors raved about the experience. They feel so much more prepared to have career-related conversations and have a better understanding of on-campus and online resources to support the professional and personal development of our scholars."
Rachel F.
Event Manager
"I cannot recommend Marcy’s coaching services enough! I lost my job when COVID forced the business I worked at to close. I worked for the same company for 17 years and had no idea how to start the job search. She was patient and kind through the entire process. Her expertise from the very beginning: helping me create and perfect my resume and cover letters to providing insights and suggestions for how to navigate interviews. She is passionate about helping her clients realize their full potential. And I can happily report that I was offered a new job the same day as my interview. I know it was all the advice that Marcy provided that sealed the deal!"
Dr. Marco V.
Associate Dean, Student Affairs
“Marcy is a dynamic speaker who was able to relate students’ Greek life experiences with their career goals. Marcy’s energy kept the students engaged and involved throughout the entire workshop. Students learned how to effectively communicate the skills they learned from being a part of a sorority or fraternity on their resume and in future interviews. Marcy was open and approachable and easy to work with when scheduling. If you want a speaker who is relatable, fun and truly understands student engagement and careers, then you don’t want to miss out on Marcy.”

She helped me craft a resume that was professional, well thought out, and pieced together perfectly. All the while assuring me that I was a very strong candidate and I shouldn't be worried at all. She said, "Once they meet you I'm positive they'll love you". Marcy is great, very professional and patient. (I had a ton of questions). I highly recommend her."
