Hey, I’m ‘Tine Zekis, your Pivot & Pay Strategist. I help Black women professionals double their income by leveraging their existing skills. If you haven’t heard my story yet, I’d love to share it with you now. I started my career as a high school math teacher before making a pivot into software engineering. Through a series of strategic job moves and salary negotiations, I was able to double my teaching salary in just two years, and I more than TRIPLED my teaching salary in less than five years. Now, I help Black women professionals change the trajectory of their careers, dramatically increase their incomes, and build generational wealth. I've worked with clients to fine-tune my methods, reducing the time it takes to achieve these results. And now, I'm sharing these strategies with YOU in our FREE Career Elevation Bootcamp: 5 Days to Your Next Big Move! If you want to learn how I did it, and more importantly, how YOU can do it too, join us for this transformative bootcamp. We’ll work with you to get crystal clear on your career goals, build out an actionable roadmap to help you reach those goals, and do the deep mindset work to help you expand your view of what’s possible so you can command the salary you deserve.

About us
My name is 'Tine Zekis. I help Black women at all stages of their careers who struggle with being the "only" in the room, being underpaid, and feeling unworthy of a high salary. When they work with me, they gain the confidence to share their unique perspectives every day, increase their salaries, and understand that no salary is too high because they are INVALUABLE. This helps them change the trajectory of their careers, dramatically increase their lifetime earning potential, and build generational wealth.
