Career Coach • Educator • Founder of Across Careers
Meet Ash
I help people design work that actually works for their brains.
My Approach
Career planning should be neuroinclusive, practical, and hopeful.
That means understanding how your brain works, how you process information, and what you need to thrive instead of trying to fit into a system that was never designed for you.
Whether you are exploring a new career path, preparing graduate school applications, or figuring out how to manage burnout, I help you find strategies that fit you, not the other way around.
“Career planning should meet you where you are, not where others think you should be.”
My Background
Before starting Across Careers, I spent more than a decade in higher education and career development, helping students and professionals navigate change with confidence.
I have coached hundreds of clients across industries, including:
-
Technology and data
-
Public policy and research
-
Higher education and the arts
My approach combines academic advising, evidence-based coaching, and a deep understanding of how neurodivergent people experience work and learning environments.
I also teach and speak on topics such as:
-
Neuroinclusive career design
-
Executive function and ADHD at work
-
Accessible graduate admissions and application strategy
Why I Started Across Careers
Most career resources assume everyone learns, communicates, and works the same way.
I wanted to create a space where people could explore career change, graduate school, or professional growth with tools that recognize how their brains actually work.
Across Careers exists to help people make informed, confident career decisions with less burnout and more self-trust.
Outside of Work
When I am not coaching or teaching, I am usually reading about workplace psychology, experimenting with new systems to make life run smoother, or exploring the connection between neuroscience and meaningful work.
