About — Gabby Communications

Hello, I’m Ruth, a career advisor helping professionals with coaching and writing to support job transitions and career advances.

Partnering with clients to accelerate career goals is my specialty. Service options include developing career strategies, creating career documents—letters, resumes, LinkedIn profiles, bios, speeches, 30-60-90-day plans—guiding job search strategies, networking, interview preparation, and job offer (salary) negotiations.

I help clients build their image and confidence. My approach, guidance, processes, and writing style are a few reasons I am a trusted advisor. My efforts have resulted in empowered clients, business referrals, and writing awards.

Examples of my work are included in publications such as Modernize Your Résumé, Modernize Your Cover Letter, Gallery of Best Resumes, and articles including Career Communications for Introverts, Technical Resume Strategies, and Five Questions to Design or Redefine Your Private Practice.

Before being an entrepreneur, I worked in corporate jobs for 15+ years at Hewlett Packard, Konica Minolta, Proven Systems, and Performance Health Solutions as a marketing product manager, communications specialist, marketing director, operations director, and operations vice president. In addition to owning Gabby Communications, I’ve also co-founded three other companies.
