About

Many career coaches fall into this profession. I am one of those unusual ones who knew since college that I wanted to help people plan their careers. As soon as I graduated with my undergraduate from Brigham Young University in 2011, I started Launched by Linda to gain experience in editing resumes, cover letters, and college essays while I worked towards my graduate degree.

I did my share of nonlinear career exploration until I earned my master's degree in Psychological Counseling from Columbia University, where I got my dream job as a college career counselor. Then I discovered coaching and got my training at New York University.

Since then, I have worked as a career counselor at 3 universities in 3 states (New York, Utah, Texas) while serving clients in various industries all over the US and abroad. I’ve edited thousands of resumes and taught hundreds of students in college career development courses. Now, I work with adults of all ages and in all stages of their careers. I love helping clients increase self-awareness, explore opportunities, make authentic career decisions, and achieve career goals.

I have struggled through all the career issues my clients have been through – confusion, indecisiveness, uncertainty, rejections, frustrations, disappointments, boredom, difficult bosses and colleagues, toxic environments, rebranding – and come out on the other side to help you chart your way forward!
