Hi! I’m Ashley
Let me share with you a bit about who I am, why I love helping my clients, and how I went from side-hustle to helping thousands of Southern California executives and senior professionals stand out to hiring decision-makers and land jobs they love.I am a resume and LinkedIn expert with a background in executive recruitment, staffing, and human resources. Driven by my love of writing and being of service to others, I’m here to help Southern California executives and senior-level professionals land their next role.I got my start as a Recruiter for a top OC Metro staffing firm, placing candidates at companies like Disney, First American Title, Kaiser, Boeing, and more. I went on to earn degrees in Human Development and Educational Counseling from Azusa Pacific University and became a school counselor for 14 years while writing resumes on Craigslist, for friends and family, and through word of mouth as a side-hustle.

In 2014, I had my beautiful daughter, and knew I wanted to be both a full-time mom and have a fulfilling service-oriented career helping others, so I took the plunge and launched SoCalResumes. Since then, I’ve transformed resumes, LinkedIn profiles for thousands of Southern California professionals.I’ll be the first to say that there is a ton of conflicting information (and some misinformation) about how to write an executive resume (or LinkedIn profile) …it’s time consuming and difficult to wrap your mind around it all. Maybe you’ve been trying for a while to convey your value or downplay your age. Perhaps, you are intimidated using LinkedIn for career networking. Or maybe you’ve never needed a resume before and just don’t have the time to sit down and write out all you do.Here’s what I say: Don’t sweat it. I’ve transformed resumes for all levels of professionals – from C-Suite executives, entrepreneurs, military-to-civilians, career pivots, return-to-work, and those looking to advance their careers. Using a modern, relevant, and authentic approach, you can be sure I’ll capture who you are and the value you’ll deliver.Additionally, an executive job search isn’t just about sending out your resume – 90% of it is networking and who you know. Making the right connections is essential. Because I’ve worked with clients at all career levels, I’m able to tap into my personal network, make introductions, and give you an advantage.

Clients have told me:“I had a phone interview this morning and the interviewer stated that my ‘resume answered a majority of questions I had planned on asking you’. How cool is that!!!”“I had some great feedback on the LinkedIn profile you created from the recruiter I’m working with and it got me the interview with the Vice President.”
