"Virginia gave me long-distance career counseling when I moved from Albuquerque to San Diego. She provided resources and critical information about the area, as well as encouragement. She assisted me in seeing my own experiences and education in a new light. "

Leigh S.
Client

"Burned out from the corporate world, with my self-confidence sagging and unsure of my next step, I participated in Virginia’s workshop. As a result, I identified my strengths and desires in the workplace. With her support and a network opportunity, I decided to go into business fo rmyself. I am enjoying success and my independence of being self-employed."
