5 Days to Career Clarity!
Kickstart Your Career, Kickstart Your Life
Your career doesn’t need to be left up to fate. You don’t need to feel like an impostor or suffer from career FOMO. Lack of promotions, increased stress, and loss of pride on the job are just signs that you need a career evolution. The good news is that the job market can be like a Choose Your Own Adventure book!
You can design your career.
The first step is refining your vision and mission. What soil do you want to be planted in? What kind of company suits you best? Where do you want to go in the future? These are the kind of questions that can help you understand your true goal.

Meet Your Career Specialist
Hi, I'm Sami
After 8+ years of experience as a career specialist in tech boot camps, colleges, and nonprofits; I have helped hundreds of professionals just like you thrive in the job market!
Most career coaches focus on discovering your passion. I go a step farther by taking your dream and turning it into an actionable plan to build your industry profile, develop your network, and design a recession-proof career.
When I talk about designing a career that is uniquely you, its because I did it for myself.
I graduated into a decimated job market in a field that everyone said was dead and in a city that never really recovered from the 2008 recession. So when I tell you I know what its like to have a degree and no prospects, I mean it. Flash forward a decade and I have created a career that supports a life I love. My adventures have included living and traveling to a dozen countries, writing a novel, finding love, and going on side quests when I want.
I designed my career and I can help you too.

"SAMI IS NOTHING SHORT OF A MIRACLE WORKER. HER ADVICE IS TAILORED, PRACTICAL, AND GROUNDED IN REAL-WORLD, IN-DEPTH KNOWLEDGE OF THE UX LANDSCAPE. WHAT SAMI OFFERS IS REALLY A CAREER ROADMAP, FULL OF ACTIONABLE OPTIONS THAT FEEL BITE-SIZED AND ACHIEVABLE. MY SESSION WITH SAMI HELPED ME CLARIFY MY POSITION IN THE MARKET, AS WELL AS IDENTIFY CONCRETE NEXT STEPS THAT I FEEL VERY CONFIDENT WILL YIELD THE RESULTS I'M AFTER. IN ADDITION TO SAMI'S EXCELLENT GUIDANCE, SHE'S ALSO A RIOT. I LEFT MY SESSION FEELING POISED TO MAKE MEANINGFUL CHANGES, UPLIFTED ABOUT MY POSSIBILITIES, AND A LITTLE SORE FROM LAUGHING IN THE PROCESS. WHAT MORE COULD YOU ASK FOR FROM A COACH?"
