Hi 👋 I’m an Expert Resume Writer & Remote Career Coach helping clients build careers they love.

Working remotely has changed my life. I’m an advocate for remote work and have always been fascinated with the digital nomad lifestyle. I help clients make remote work a reality. 

Funny story: One night I was out & about in my hometown and never talk much about my LinkedIn life. Suddenly, a random person recognized me from LinkedIn and said “Hey, you’re That Remote Guy!” and it stuck. 

I’ve been writing resumes and career coaching for 10+ years and honestly love it. It’s fulfilling to watch clients find their dream jobs and know I played a small piece in that.

In addition to coaching clients on their careers, I also coach them on getting clarity on their freelancing skills and on building a personal brand on LinkedIn. I’ve seen firsthand how LinkedIn can totally transform someone’s career and unlock opportunities.

📌 How we can work together:

I offer all my secrets and resources through my courses, 1on1 coaching, or signature group programs. Ask me to see which program might be the right fit for you.

📌 Here’s a bit more about me:

✅ Resume writer & career coach for 10+ years
✅ Traveled & worked remotely from 8+ countries 
✅ Grew Escape the Cubicle newsletter to 30K folks
✅ Newbie Beginner Salsa Dancing Instructor 
✅ Have 3 chihuahuas (Auggie, Rocco, and Cabo) 

My 2024 goals include writing & publishing my own book around how to design a remote career. I’m also actively seeking opportunities to write guest articles for national online publications.

If you’re able to unlock any doors to those opportunities, I’d love to chat. 😃

On LinkedIn, I write about remote work, career fulfillment, solopreneurship, freelancing, and LinkedIn growth hacking. 


Successful careers are like a work of art.
When everything comes together, it’s a satisfying feeling. 


There’s a lot of moving pieces in a successful job search.

…especially when searching for our remote dream job, many things need to work together. 

Here are 4 actions to start (or restart) our job search:

✅ Get focused. The more we focus and narrow down on our specific job target, the more likely we’ll find our dream job. 

✅ Get updated. Keeping our resume and LinkedIn profile updated every 6 months ensures we’re ready for opportunity. 

✅ Get networking. Reach out to 5 new people weekly with an intro (or reintro) message to build our network. 

✅ Get consistent. The key to a successful job search is putting in a little consistent effort every single day. 

Whether it’s Day 1 of your remote job search or Day 100, there is hope.

When we stay consistent and keep pushing through daily, our big opportunity might be right around the corner.

Even if we’ve received 100 “No’s” all we need is 1 big “Yes.”

Question - Which day of your job search are you on? Is it Day 1 or Day 100? 

Challenge - Introduce yourself in the comments, let us know your job target, and let’s network to help each other out.

The right referral or introduction might be exactly what we need.

Thinking outside-the-box helps us stand out in our remote job search. Let’s strive to be original. 


It’s true most job postings receive 100’s of applications. However, we still have hope. 

Many of those candidates simply hit “quick apply” or send generic applications. 

So, how can you stand out from the pack and break through the noise? 

Here are 4 ways to stand our in our remote job search:

✅ Connect with the recruiter. Rather than only applying online, find a few decision makers and reach out via LinkedIn. 

✅ Get a referral. Search for second level connections that can introduce you directly to a hiring manager or decision maker.

✅ Build a brand. When we optimize our LinkedIn profile and build a brand, we can attract the right opportunities. 

✅ Engage strategically. Use LinkedIn filters to find the right content to engage with. (specifically those with “hiring now” on their profile)

These are just a few ways to stand out, and there are so many more. 

The clients who use these outside-the-box strategies see a 300% increase in interviews. 

It’s something we talk about inside the Remote Dream Job Masterclass.

Question - What do you think about these strategies? What’s your best approach for standing out?

Sometimes thinking outside the box is just what we need. Making creative moves can change a career. 


Most of us have heard about Ikigai. It’s a Japanese concept that encourages people to find what matters to them and live a life with purpose and joy.

As we get older, sometimes we forget that purpose and the work that excites us. However, reigniting that purpose can change everything. 

Here are 4 questions to reignite our ikigai:

✅ 1 // What do we enjoy doing? Sometimes this simple question can help us get started again on getting back to basics. 

✅ 2 // What could we do for free? That phrase “do what we love and we’ll never work a day in our life” really is true. 

✅ 3 // What do others say we’re good at? Listening to the advice of trusted friends and family is always a good idea. 

✅ 4 // What do people ask us to help with? When we’re repeatedly asked to help solve a certain problem, it might be our purpose. 

Life’s too short to not love what we do.

If we’re living for the weekend and dreading Monday mornings, it might be time for a change. 

Question - What’s another question we can ask to help find our ikigai and purpose?

Here’s to us Ikigai-ing together, Wes

I knew from a pretty early age that the regular 9-to-5 work life wasn’t for me...

I was always the scrappy kid who was selling cookies or greeting cards around the neighborhood door-to-door to make extra cash. The lemonade stands were a real money maker, too. 

Fast forward to 28 years old, and I was managing a wine shop where my position ended up being “deemed redundant” whatever that means. Basically, I was fired. 

I pulled myself together, went to Google and typed in “how to make money online” and discovered the world of freelance writing. 

I started writing copy for clients like emails, websites, sales pages, and product descriptions. At some point, I discovered that people really needed resumes, too.

Over the next few years, I was able to build my resume business into a solid six-figures per year, which was way beyond my expectations. My resume writing allowed me to buy my first house, travel around the world, and build up a savings account. 

Fast forward to 2022, and I’m taking on a new challenge of teaching people how to do what I do. 
Remote work is a big passion of mine. I love helping “rescue people from cubicles by creating a remote work lifestyle.”

So many people say to me “Oh man I wish I could do what you do.” Hey guess what…you can! It’s absolutely possible to work from home enjoying what you do while earning a nice income. If I can do it, you can do it. 

Here’s a few fast facts about me:

•	Some of my favorite places I’ve gotten to travel because of freelance writing have been Puerto Rico, Botswana, New Zealand, Panama, and Guatemala is absolutely amazing

•	I live in Lexington, KY but my dream is to build a house somewhere in Baja, Mexico near the beach, whales, and wind surfers

•	I absolutely hate winter weather, and I’ll do anything to migrate to warmer climates when it’s cold in Kentucky

•	My mom was a concert pianist, and she made me and my three brothers all play piano; I hated it while growing up, but now I’m glad I stuck with it

•	I have 4 dogs (it’s a mad house) and 2 of them are chihuahua brothers; they showed up randomly in our neighborhood without collars or chips, and I’m convinced they were put there by angels

•	My mom passed away in October 2021, and it was devastating for me; however, it made me realize just how short life is and that we all need to be doing work that we enjoy

Drop me a DM because I’d like to meet you!

When we surround ourselves with people smarter than ourselves, we level up our careers. Agree? 


Positive company culture encourages its people to support eachother and grow. 

They say we’re the sum of our closest relationships. If our sum is not as high as we like, we can find new people to learn from. 

Here are 4 types of people who can help level up our careers: 

✅ Mentors. Finding a great mentor who speaks life into our careers can greatly improve our journey. 

✅ Coaches. Working with a career coach helps us identify our weaknesses and fortify our strengths. 

✅ Colleagues. We should always see our coworkers as business partners and not competition. 

✅ Leaders. Finding influential community leaders to partner with can make a major impact on our careers. 

Sometimes just the right relationship can change everything. 

Let’s level up by linking arms and working together to accomplish more. 

Question - Who’s someone that’s made a major impact on your career? (a boss, coach, mentor, etc) 

Double points for tagging them below 👇🏼

When we have a boss who wants us to succeed in a remote work environment, everyone wins. 🙌🏼 Agree? 


As John Maxwell says, “Everything rises and falls on leadership.”

Having great leaders makes a great company. When we feel like our leaders value us as people, we’re able to do exceptional work. 

Remote work culture can be a bit different than an in-office environment. 

Communication is key. When working with teams in different locations, maintaining open communication builds a cohesive team.

Great remote work bosses:

✅ Trust their employees 
✅ Build a culture of excellence 
✅ Encourage a positive culture 
✅ Facilitate open communication 
✅ Check in on a consistent basis 

True leaders see the very best in their people and strive to build a thriving environment.

Question - Have you ever had an amazing boss in a remote job who wanted you to succeed?
