Bio

After interviewing over 300 candidates and reviewing thousands of resumes as a Hiring Manager, Career Coach Anne Ryan began to wonder how many great candidates were hiding in stacks of bad resumes.  So…she decided to do something about it!  Anne has since helped thousands of people position themselves to build their ideal career through workshops & 1:1 coaching.  She’s spoken about professional branding, resumes, and creating your own career adventure at conferences, universities, & non-profits across the United States, Europe, and Australia.

Prior to starting her own business, Anne spent 20 years in tech at Palantir Technologies and IBM after earning a B.S. in Computer & Systems Engineering and Computer Science at RPI and a Master’s in Engineering Management at Duke University.  Outside of work, you can find Anne weightlifting, reading, and occasionally moonlighting as a poker dealer.
