A collaborative approach

How it works

1. Start with a conversation

Share your goals, work history, challenges, and the type of opportunity you want next.

2. Shape your story

Karen identifies the skills and accomplishments that matter most, then organizes them into clear, persuasive résumé content.

3. Move forward confidently

You receive a polished résumé—and, if requested, aligned LinkedIn content—ready to support your job search.

Experience from both sides of the hiring process

Your résumé writer understands what employers look for.

Before founding The Virtual Copywriter, Karen served as an Eastern United States sales manager for a Fortune 100 company and as Vice President of Sales and Marketing at a boutique firm. She managed teams, collaborated with human resources, reviewed résumés, and conducted interviews.

That real-world hiring experience helps her recognize what makes a candidate’s story credible, relevant, and memorable.

Résumé experience across many fields

Including executives, sales, marketing, engineering, architecture, IT, legal, accounting, education, nonprofit, mental health, skilled trades, small-business ownership, and more.
