Why Work With Me

More than 10 years ago, Daphne realized there was a unique and under-serviced cohort of young adults who needed specialized guidance and support to find their place in the world of work. So she developed, tested and refined her own methodology, and created her own company, to fill this void. Since then, Daphne has helped hundreds of young adults learn how to differentiate themselves and work through a proven process to springboard their careers. Her track record is 100%. Every client she takes on gets landed, whether they get a job or enrol in additional education to achieve their end goal.

  • Assisting with benefit and pension plan enrolment.

What Our Clients Say

Working with Daphne allowed us to be supportive parents in the job-hunting process without having to be the one recommending different strategies. I equate it to kids learning to drive. Leave the primary teaching to the experts.
Daphne has a very upbeat positive manner. She kept excellent notes from her meetings with our son which made follow up with us on a monthly basis very informative. I have recommended Daphne to others because she appears to really understand 20-somethings. She speaks to them in their language in a very supportive manner. Daphne was also very good at setting clear expectations for our child in their relationship with her. She set clear expectations for meetings, use of tools/templates and punctuality. She had a strong hand ‘in a velvet glove’. I know our son really respected her. Thanks Daphne.”
mother of 23-year old male with BA from Queen’s University, wanting to secure his first job post-graduation in an area of interest
Daphne is incredibly easy to talk to and always creates a space where concerns can be shared openly and honestly. She was consistently available, regardless of the time of day, and was especially supportive whenever something significant was happening with my child. Her thoughtful follow-up emails outlining goals and progress were extremely helpful and reassuring. I especially appreciated how she taught my kids the process of networking, including how to write professional outreach and thank-you emails. Rather than simply helping them find a job, she equipped them with lifelong skills in communication and professional etiquette. In a world where the job search can often feel overwhelming and discouraging, Daphne worked tirelessly to keep spirits high and encouraged perseverance throughout the process. With her many years of experience, it’s clear that she truly knows what she’s doing, and is passionate about what she does. Daphne has been an absolute pleasure to work with from start to finish. I highly recommend her.”
mother of 31-year old male with MEng, Queen’s University, who wanted to pivot to a new field of interest
Working with Daphne has been a very positive experience. She is extremely knowledgeable, patient, and supportive, and our work together has been both productive and holistic. She met me where I was, worked at my pace, and consistently went above and beyond to make herself available. I would highly recommend her to anyone seeking compassionate guidance from a true industry expert.”
38-year old female graduate from Wilfrid Laurier University and Humber College, who wanted to pivot from work experience and education
“Looking for work was particularly gruelling for me. I had been fruitlessly looking for almost half a year when I met Daphne. She was incredibly easy to open up to and work with. Almost instantly she was able to determine my priorities and expectations in a job, as well as where I would succeed and be most effective in my search. Daphne's expertise and understanding of who I am as a person allowed us to hone in on many opportunities I might not have considered. She guided me into a role that I never would've have expected and where I am loving every second of it!”
24-year old male graduate in Geophysics & Economics from Dalhousie University
“My child was at a difficult crossroad: she has sound academic credentials, but couldn’t find satisfying work in her field. Her confidence had taken a beating. Daphne’s methodical and structured approach, and her availability and coaching support, helped my daughter to find work that allowed her to leverage her academic experience, in a good quality business. When I think back to my first work experiences, I wish I could have had a Daphne to provide guidance.”

“Thanks so much! You have been a great help to Brian and helped him evolve tremendously over the last few months. Your insight into the job market has been invaluable, and it has been wonderful working with you and hearing your feedback on his process.””
mother of a 23-year-old male with BA (Criminology) from Western University
