"Janice has been an advisor, confidante, and mentor to me for years. Whether it is connecting me with networking opportunities, brainstorming possible career moves or simply helping me talk it all out, She always takes the time to truly listen. Janice helped me walk step-by-step through what I valued in my current position. With her help, I created a "To Do List" to take me at the next level. I carry my "To Do List" with me everyday.
