Testimonials
My passion is to help you be successful in mapping your career following teaching, developing and enhancing your technology networking, creating a resume that will highlight your unique skills, and interview preparation for success.
Working with Austin for the past 6 months has been the exact guidance that I needed. Austin provided me with direction, professional advice, strategies for the job search, and overall accountability. Searching for a job prior to working with Lane Switch was daunting and often devastating. Once I had Austin in my corner, it was much easier to keep my spirits high and my sight focused on the next actionable step.

I was an educator for 8 years when I made the decision to take a job in the corporate world. I wasn’t sure how things worked or what to expect. I was fortunate to be introduced to Austin who had made the same career jump from education. He helped me navigate the uncertainties and obstacles of a corporate career. Austin showed me ways I could utilize skills I used as a teacher to make the transition easier for me. Under the tutelage of Austin I was given the tools to minimize the learning curve and anxiety that comes with a new career.

Teacher, Carlisle High School
After being in the education field for over 5 years, I had decided to make the tough decision to move on from my teaching career, and see what else was out there. Without knowing where to start, I knew an updated LinkedIn profile would be my best bet. After linking with friends and acquaintances, I had remembered that Austin, a good friend, had left education himself to pursue something new. Connecting with Austin was one of the best things I could have done for myself! Austin’s knowledge and insight helped me understand that the skills I had obtained as a teacher, will transfer over to other positions in the “real world”. With Austin walking me through my skills and experiences as a teacher, and how they connected to the business world, it made me more confident in my abilities to go out and tackle the job market!
