Tracy truly listened to and understood our needs. Tracy developed a highly-customized presentation for our 250
member group session, and also continually plugged in with other
resources and advice. She was able to talk about career management
topics both broadly and in depth, and is especially savvy at utilizing
social media to share her knowledge.

about LinkedIn. She’s definitely the real deal!
