What Others Say About Working With Sheila
Thank you SO SO MUCH for all of your assistance. The negotiation tips and market information we discussed allowed me to more than double my salary and upgrade significantly in the overall benefits department. Even before the new role, the adjustments to my social media brought in multiple speaking offers, network connections, and solicitations from countless recruiters. Further, I was able to negotiate a raise from a point of strength at my former company. Truly, it all would not have been possible without your advice, guidance, and sprucing up of all of my materials. Simply put, hiring you more than paid for itself and was the best investment in myself I've made in quite some time.

Because of her deep knowledge of the legal industry, Sheila helped me realize that getting to the next level was not about my legal skills. She helped me get comfortable using and expanding my network and touting my leadership skills to help me get the role I wanted. On top of practical advice and tools, she provided support and cheerleading to help me achieve the position I wanted.
