I'll help customize your portfolio to resonate with hiring managers like myself. We'll refine it iteratively to increase your chances of passing the initial review hurdle. The competition is fierce. Is your portfolio helping or hurting you?

Fixing your portfolio is hard work, but it will serve you well. A good portfolio will set you apart from the crowd, accelerate the speed of your interview process, increase the seniority at which you are hired and increase your starting salary and equity grant. The best portfolios get people through the door at great companies.

how does it work?
  1. We’ll start with a 1:1 session for me to get to know you, your experiences, your body of work and the next role you want to land. I want to understand if your existing body of work supports your ambitions.

  2. I'll conduct a 1:1 session to evaluate your portfolio structure, layout, and design. I’ll react to your portfolio in real time, as a hiring manager would.

  3. I’ll review your case studies to ensure they tell a compelling story that signals hiring managers that you can solve design problems.

  4. I’ll help you tailor your portfolio to target the roles you’re applying to specifically. We’ll review the job description closely to ensure you include samples that address the application, company, space and seniority requirements.

  5. I’ll review your work in progress and provide written, actionable feedback throughout

  6. We’ll collaborate over Zoom and Slack. If you're located in the San Francisco Bay Area, we can also meet in person.

Next steps
  1. Schedule a 30-minute initial meeting. There is a $50 fee for the consultation. If we decide to work together, the consultation fee will be credited to your account.

  2. Fill out the coaching intake form so I can get to know you before we speak.
