- Prepared for interviews, networking conversations, salary negotiations, and confident decisions.
Many women veterans leave the military with years of leadership, operations, HR, logistics, training, and project management experience. But when they enter the civilian job market, they often feel misunderstood. They apply to jobs and hear nothing back.
In 2019, I knew I needed to better understand corporate America so I could help veterans find careers where they felt valued and aligned. Through my work and learning with companies like Cisco and Red Hat, I saw the gap clearly:
"Veterans were not lacking experience. Employers were lacking understanding."
I became a career coach for women veterans because I saw how often military talent was undervalued in corporate America—not because veterans lacked experience, but because their value was not being translated in a way employers understood.
