About Brage

I have been a mentor for over 3 years working with Iraq and Afghanistan veterans and would very much like to help support service members looking to separate or who have already separated from the military as well as military spouses.

Areas of focus are as follows (but not limited to):
* Goal identification and establishment
* Resume development
* Translating military experience to a civilian setting
* Preparing for and conducting informational and mock interviews
* Researching career paths/fields
* Identifying and providing resources and tools
* Empowering and motivating

I currently work in pharmaceutical development implementing global clinical trials in the area of oncology. I also hold a masters degree in counseling psychology where my focus was in adolescents and grief and loss.
