“Having felt stuck in my pursuit for a higher education appointment in the dramatic arts, I reached out to Dr. Takiyah Amin. She was amazing! She treated me with respect, believed in my abilities, and helped me uncover my authentic voice as it relates to the all-important introductory materials when applying for a college post. She reminded me that I am equipped to snag any position I believe my skillset has been primed to enjoy. WIth passion, humor, and professionalism, Dr. Amin empowered me to go for my dreams, and I believe I have the materials and information needed to reach my goals. Thank you, Dr. Amin!”

“Dr. Amin posed thoughtful probing questions which resulted in me seeking clarity in my own work and plans for the future. During our call, she helped me to articulate my vision and armed me with additional tasks to help manifest that vision. I would highly recommend her services!”
— T.B.J., Faculty Member and Administrator at a Public Research University
“Dr. Amin is an excellent coach for academics. I worked with her to prepare for a Skype interview, and I could not be more pleased. She brings together critical analysis, insight, and warmth – traits that are invaluable in a career coach. You can expect her to give you and your materials a thorough, professional critique, but she does so with a compassionate, encouraging touch that I found to be just right. I highly recommend her services to anyone needing help on the academic job market or currently on the tenure track.”
— E.R., Faculty Member at a Public Research University
“Brilliance is exactly the word to describe Dr. Takiyah Nur Amin and encounters with her are life-changing. In a series of 3 sessions, Dr. Amin was able to reveal to me exactly what is holding me back in the academic faculty search process. She helped me to reconnect with those parts of myself that I had lost — confidence, enthusiasm, initiative, drive and inspiration — and she invited me to “DREAM BIG.” Dr. Amin was able to see through my challenges with clarity, precision, and compassion, and most importantly, she showed me that there are pathways and possibilities available to me right now for pursuing the work that I want to do in this life. As Dr. Amin asked me, “Why wait?”
