About
Hi! I’m Lisa Marie, a Career Transition & Personal Branding Strategist with 10 years of experience helping professionals make career moves that lead to better pay, more flexibility, stronger work-life balance, and greater confidence in what they bring to the table. If you’re feeling stuck in your current career, unsure what roles actually fit, applying without getting traction, struggling to translate your experience, or wondering how to market yourself for a remote, hybrid, or higher-paying opportunity, this is exactly the work I help with. I’ve supported 1,000+ women and educators with career transitions and advancement, including clients landing $80K–$150K+ roles, $20K–$50K salary increases, remote and hybrid opportunities, and positions with companies like McGraw Hill, Pearson, Instructure, Amazon and more. I help with: ✨ Career clarity and finding the right roles ✨ Transferable skills and career positioning ✨ Resume writing, rebranding and ATS optimization ✨ LinkedIn and professional branding ✨ Networking and job search strategy ✨ Job leads and application support ✨ Career portfolios ✨ Interview preparation and salary negotiation ✨ Confidence, mindset and overcoming imposter syndrome ✨ Accountability and ongoing 1:1 career transition support My approach is holistic because a career change isn’t just about getting another job. It’s about recognizing your value, communicating it confidently, getting paid what you’re worth, and building a career that better fits the life you want. My primary focus is women and educators, but I work with professionals across 50+ industries and backgrounds. Here’s how we’ll get started: Send me a message and I’ll send over a short questionnaire where you can tell me more about your goals and upload your resume. I’ll personally review everything, give you feedback, and recommend the type of support that makes the most sense for where you are. From there, I’ll send over the exact pricing and next steps. Resume services start at $297, and payment plan options are available through Affirm and Klarna. Message me when you’re ready and we’ll figure out the best place to start. :)

Lisa is THE person to go to when you need to revamp your resume. She was there every step of the way and was extremely accessible.

After my
resume was done I couldn't believe how well and professionally written it was. Since then, I've gotten numerous calls and replies to my inquiries and it is looking very promising to me. Thank you Lisa!

I was very pleased with Design Write LLC. I gave them what had seemed a difficult challenge, yet Lisa turned out a cover letter and resumé for both types of positions I had been trying to secure with one. Plus, the day after applying the LinkedIn profile changes she provided, my inquiries nearly doubled.

Lisa was quick, professional & kind. She really went the extra mile to understand the field I was applying to so she could pick out the best aspects from my original resume to reword and apply to my new resume. I wasn’t sure if this was a service I NEEDED or should be spending money on, but this was so well worth it. I am very impressed and will absolutely be coming back to Lisa in the future for any resume/cover letter needs.

I had an outdated resume and to further compound my problems, I was seeking employment in a new field I had never worked before. Lisa was prompt in her responses and professional in her work, always seeking feedback on my part. In the end, she produced a professional grade resume that gave me the boost of confidence I needed! Very satisfied with the services I received.

I need to take a moment and let people know about my wonderful experience working with Lisa at Design Write. I desperately wanted to have a total reworking of an existing resume, in order to get a professional job. I decided to go with Lisa because I liked her page layouts, the positive reviews I had read about her work, as well as her initial response to me when I inquired about her services. Another service I looked into sent me a form letter, and asked for money right away, definitely something that steered me away from them immediately.
Lisa is very easy to contact, responds quickly, is a total professional, very open to suggestions, uses a spectacular vocabulary in her work, and her pricing is very fair. The job was done quickly, it looks streamlined and clean, and really highlighted who I am, and what I can do for a company or organization that I wish to join. I am sure the
resume and cover letter she did for me will do the job it was intended for. Work with Lisa, I know you will be as satisfied as I am.
