MEET RUTHIE:
Ruthie is a career coach and vision board workshop facilitator who helps young adults and early-career professionals build confidence, clarify their strengths, and take aligned action toward meaningful work.
But she didn’t always know how to do that, especially for herself.
In her teens and twenties, she followed a path of “shoulds.” She chose a major based on what others said she was good at. After graduating, she had no clear roadmap. She didn’t know how to connect her degree to a career that felt aligned—or even what she was naturally good at. So she tried everything. At one point, she juggled three jobs and two unpaid internships, hoping that doing more would somehow lead to clarity.
Instead, she felt paralyzed by options. The world was wide open, but she had no idea how to choose a direction.
Like many of her clients now, Ruthie lacked confidence when applying for jobs. She undervalued her strengths, took roles where she was drastically underpaid, and thought burnout was just part of “figuring it out.”
After her second round of burnout in two years, she met with a career coach, and everything changed. She named her strengths, owned her values, and reflected on her accomplishments. That clarity led to a coaching role that felt deeply aligned and set her on the path she’s on today.
Now, Ruthie works with thoughtful, driven people who crave clarity, confidence, and a deeper sense of purpose. Many of them have followed the “right” path — picked a solid major, landed a good first job — but still feel lost, disconnected, or unsure how to find work that actually fits. She creates a calm space where they can reconnect with themselves and take steps they feel good about. Whether helping a client map out goals, rewrite a resume, or practice articulating their strengths, Ruthie brings structure and support to a process that can otherwise feel overwhelming.
Ruthie is a Certified Youth Resilience Coach accredited by the International Coaching Federation and trained in the Positive Intelligence framework.
Outside of coaching, Ruthie is a foster parent for teenagers, has a super-friendly cat named Wasabi, and loves gardening. She gets energy boosts through exercise (either rowing on the Willamette or during boot camp workout sessions with friends), and her happy place is in the summer sunshine next to one of Oregon’s beautiful rivers.
