Background

About Andrea Brown

I am a professional career counselor with over 10 years of career guidance and assessment experience. I have specialized training in vocational counseling for individuals with disabilities and a passion for working with this population. I believe that a career should be interesting, inspiring and enjoyable and that is why I love helping individuals find their best career match. I utilize the implementation and interpretation of a variety of assessment tools to assist individuals with establishing appropriate career goals. I then assist these individuals in reaching these goals through resume writing and interviewing coaching. In addition, I provide in school supports and training to students with disabilities in areas of employment readiness, advocacy, career exploration and soft skill development. I assess individual needs and develop curriculum specifically tailored to meet these needs while encouraging students to advocate for themselves and their own needs. Recently I have begun to provide financial coaching and support to individuals who are focused on reducing debt, building credit and establishing savings. I utilize coaching techniques to build relationships and provide appropriate resources to meet individual needs.
