ABOUT US
About Mapping Up
At Mapping Up, we believe in every individual’s potential for greatness. We also recognize that young students often face pressure to make career decisions before they’re fully prepared, leading to choices that may lack insight. Many are influenced by well-meaning family members who, though supportive, may not be up-to-date on current career trends or may base advice on outdated norms.
Our mission is to empower students and young professionals through personalized career coaching that builds confidence and paves the way for success.
Our team of experienced coaches and psychologist understands the unique challenges you face and provides tailored guidance. Whether you’re choosing a college major, pursuing your first job, or exploring a career change, we’re here to support you at every step.
