You've Checked the Boxes, right?

Now it’s time to change your trajectory.

Your resume says “success.” But in the quiet moments—when you're scrolling job boards, second-guessing your next step, or wondering how she got promoted and you didn’t—something’s missing.

It’s not your experience. It’s not your credentials.
It’s your career strategy.

The Right Move Protocol™ is for women who want to make bold, intentional moves—without wasting another 6–12 months “waiting to see what happens.”


It's time for proven career support

The Right Move Protocol™ is different for a reason.

This isn’t another job search course.
And it’s not mindset-only coaching.

It’s strategy, psychology, and high-touch support designed for the realities of Pharma/Biotech.

Matrixed environments. Regulated orgs. Slow-moving promotions. High-stakes work.

Whether you're ready for a new role, promotion, or just want to be sure you're making the right move, The Right Move Protocol™ helps you take control with clarity and direction—without losing time, money, or your sanity.

And that is what you want, isn't it?

Anonymous discovered how to get out of the lab and into pm without experience

Learning how to articulate my transferrable skills is a game changer...

I loved getting to know the other women and seeing that my struggles were not unique! Having someone help me figure out what I bring to the table and how to articulate my transferrable skills is a game changer for me. I knew I needed to make changes, but having someone be able to help me navigate what they were was exactly what I needed.

Stacy uncovered her dream job and path to growth

Melissa's coaching has been a game-changer in shaping my career.

In just 8 weeks, I identified the role that aligns perfectly with my values and gained the actionable strategies to move forward with confidence. Her structured support and personalized advice provided the clarity I needed to take decisive steps. Melissa was by my side every step of the way, cheering me on. I’m incredibly grateful for her expertise and excited for the growth and opportunities ahead!

hey there!

I'm Melissa,
Your New Coach.

With 15 years in the Pharma/Biotech industry, I know how you feel, because I was there, too.

Former Pharma/Biotech Talent Leader | Career & Leadership Coach for Women in Industry

I spent 15+ years navigating corporate Pharma/Biotech, ultimately leading Talent Development at AstraZeneca. I had a seat at the table and still felt something was missing.

I created The Right Move Protocol because I saw too many brilliant women being overlooked, second-guessing themselves, or waiting years for the recognition and roles they’d earned.

Since leaving corporate, I’ve helped 50+ women in the industry land promotions, transition to leadership, and create roles that never existed — all without burning out or selling out.

You don’t need to work more hours or play a political game.
You just need to know the strategy.

Real Questions from Women Like You

Why do i need a coach?

Think about it—have you ever played a sport or an instrument? The best performers always have a coach.

Not because they’re not talented, but because a coach sees what you can’t. I help you refine what you’re already doing, identify what’s missing, and fast-track your results.

As a career strategist and industry expert, I don’t just support you—I guide you to make the right decisions, avoid unnecessary detours, and focus only on what actually moves the needle.

No more wasted effort. No more guessing. Just a smart plan that works.


What if I’m not job searching—just want clarity or internal growth?

Perfect. This was built for that too. Not everyone needs to leave—some just need a better plan to grow.

How fast do I see results?

Most clients see clarity within the first 30 days. Many land new roles or get promoted within 2–4 months. But what’s more valuable? The long-term shift in how you lead your career.

What if I’ve tried other coaches and it didn’t work?

Most of our clients come to us after trying courses, resume writers, or generic coaching.

This isn’t mindset-only. It’s strategy, psychology, positioning, and execution—delivered in a premium, high-touch format.


What if I have another question?

Apply. If it’s a good fit, you’ll have a private consultation call with me where we’ll talk through your goals and any questions you have.

If you’re even thinking about this — applying is the next right step.


The cost of waiting costs more than just time.

Every month you stay stuck in “maybe” mode is costing you.

Not just financially—but in clarity, credibility, and compounding opportunities.

Every month you spin in indecision is a month:

You don’t get seen for the leader you already are

You lose thousands in salary growth and bonus comp

You miss visibility opportunities that won’t come around twice

You’re delaying the ripple effect of compounding promotions—because the next one builds on this one

You delay finally getting a role that match your level and potential.

If you want to change the trajectory of your career, can you really afford to wait?

You don’t need another certification.

You don’t need to wait for the next budget cycle.

You don’t need to spend another year hoping something changes.

You need a clear, strategic path—and the expert support to execute it.

The Right Move Protocol™ is how smart women in Pharma take control of their careers—and change the entire trajectory.
