About Me

My Story
Hi, my name is Yules, and I am the founder of Brilliant Person Career Coaching. My career journey began in 2008 as a post-secondary student at the Alberta University of the Arts, where I explored my passion for creativity and innovation. As a part-time student, I embraced flexibility, diving into the world of freelancing as a layout designer, sound artist for gaming apps, VJ and DJ performer, and live art installation creator for national art festivals. Each experience introduced me to inspiring individuals who shared valuable career insights and opportunities, ultimately igniting my passion for helping others navigate their own career paths.
In 2014, I had the privilege of working alongside marginalized populations in diverse capacities. This experience deepened my understanding of how creativity extends far beyond art. It is also about problem-solving, adaptability, and self-expression. I realized that career development is a creative process in itself, and my purpose became clear. I wanted to help others uncover their hidden genius and design fulfilling career paths aligned with their strengths, values, and aspirations.
As a Certified Work-Life & Career Strategist, I specialize in career coaching, strategic planning, and personal branding. I guide individuals through self-discovery, career transitions, and professional growth. My approach is holistic, inclusive, and personalized, ensuring each person I work with gains the tools, insights, and confidence to build a meaningful and successful career.
Let’s embark on this journey together because your career should be as brilliant as you are.
