We all have a story to tell.

Hello there!

Meg Applegate, Certified Resume Writer and Personal Branding Strategist at your service.

As a business woman, wife and mom, I understand what it means to shine at work while balancing life at home. It’s no easy task, right? But oh-so worth it. That’s why my passion is connecting women in every career and life stage to fulfilling jobs that maximize their gifts, talents and experiences.

See, here’s the thing. When we unmask those special qualities that make each of us unique, we can discover the roles we were meant to fill. It really is that easy.

But after years of resume writing and brand coaching, I’ve found many women who want more but don’t know how to get there. That’s where I come in.

Using my award-winning skills as a resume writer and brand strategist, I come alongside women like you to unlock your superpowers, grow your confidence and land THE job.
