About me
Hi! I’m Leigh.
I’m a West Chester, PA-based writer, parent, and nature-enthusiast.
I’ve been writing resumes for many years and get great joy from showing my clients how AMAZING they can look on paper.
I am a Certified Advanced Resume Writer and member of Career Directors International. This internationally recognized certification is gained through a rigorous, multi-phase assessment process and maintained through ongoing accreditation.
I love how the resume-writing process allows me to dig deep into fascinating industries while unearthing the valuable accomplishments of my clients. I help those looking to take steps in their careers, those pivoting into new territory, and those simply seeking change.
As a writer, I savor the cadence of language; the flow and rhythm, the movement and structure. I’m drawn to the challenge of unearthing core messages that results in pure, transcendent copy. I believe less is almost always more.
I have an extensive “Want To Read” queue on Goodreads that I’m always flying through, though never fast enough. I love books whose authors make me cry for their honesty or marvel for their wit.
I live in the beautiful town of West Chester, PA with my family and our hound, John. Together we play a lot of sports and love to visit the Brandywine River and Pocono Mountains together.
