MEET JOJO
First-Gen Career Coach
Hello there! My name is Jovana, I also go by Jojo & am a First-Gen Career Coach for First-Gen WOC. I help my clients identify & take action on their next career move so they can get hired & pivot into a new role that's in alignment with them!
I am a first generation Latina, both of my parents are from Guanajuato, Mexico & I am the 2nd oldest of 4. I was born and raised in Salinas, CA and moved to San Jose, CA for college. I now live in the Bay Area with my Husband & our dog Buddy. I LOVE dancing and going to the gym, moving my body is a form of self-love & self-care.
My Education background is a B.A in Social Science with a Minor in Mexican American Studies from SJSU & I got my Masters degree in Teaching with a Single- Subject Teaching Credential from University of San Francisco. Although I got my Education to become a classroom teacher, I decided to pivot to Higher Education and Online Career Coaching after I decided that being a classroom Teacher was no longer the career path I wanted to move forward with.
I am a full-time Postsecondary Success Advisor in Higher Education & a part-time Career Coach for first-gen WOC, I truly LOVE the life & career I get to wake up to everyday & my goal is to help you do the same!
I LOVE supporting, guiding, coaching & mentoring others. Being able to support WOC reflect & recognize their full potential to reach their life & career goals brings me so much joy.
If you're ready to work with a Coach to identify the direction you want to take in your career, land interviews, & get job offers, I invite you to book a a call for 1:1 Coaching to learn how I can help you land your next job opportunity!
I looking forward to meeting you & I can't wait to be your Coach! :)
