I’m Michael Norwood. i help people figure out what’s next.
Career coach. UNC lecturer. Former Tar Heel. 25 years in finance. I've been in the room on both sides of the table.
The Short Version
I played basketball at the University of North Carolina under Coach Dean Smith in the 1980s. After that I spent 25 years in finance. Now I work with Honors Carolina and Economics students plus student-athletes at UNC Chapel Hill while coaching careers on the side — which at this point isn't really the side anymore.
I've helped over 1,000 students and professionals with resumes, interviews, LinkedIn, job searches, and college applications. Some of them are at Cisco and SAS and Goldman. Some are at the NFL. Some just needed someone to tell them they were thinking about it wrong.
That's usually what it takes.
