Some lawyers get a thrill from finding the needle in the haystack case law. Others, from drafting airtight contractual language.  

Me? Writing a resume or cover letter that perfectly conveys your unique expertise and career story so employers CANNOT WAIT to interview you. And then, once you do land that interview, helping you prepare and practice your career story so you can crush that interview like a boss.

My name is Natasha, and I am a lawyer-turned-lawyer resume writer with a deep love of all things resume, cover letter, interview, and job search in general. Weird, I know, but also awesome for those who don’t like or don’t have the time for that sort of thing.  

After graduating from law school, I joined the Litigation & Trial Practice Group of the AmLaw 100 firm I had summered with. And then I did what some found to be a total 180 – I became a public defender in St. Louis. From there, I tried out several different practice environments – from satellite office of a large firm, to Georgia Supreme Court Staff Attorney, to boutique firm, and finally, a nonprofit. (A lot of law jobs, I know). I also transitioned out of law into legal-adjacent roles, first as a legal recruiter and then as policy counsel.

How did I pivot back and forth from public to private sector practice and then to legal-adjacent roles so effortlessly? I got really, REALLY good at telling my career story and communicating my unique value to each specific employer. And I’ll help you do the same.

If you’re looking for a dedicated partner who understands navigating in and out of a legal career, let’s chat. I’d love to help you tell your most powerful career story and show that you’ve got the grit and gravitas to excel at whatever your dream job might be. [Insert double high-five emoji here.]
