About the instructor:

I am Amanda Kane.  I am a Certified Career Coach and homeschool mom to Emily, a sixth grader who is busy with archery & musical theatre.  In my free time, I love learning about herbalism, homeopathy, and being crunchy.

I served faithfully in the South Carolina Army National Guard for over 21 years, earning the rank of Lieutenant Colonel. My service includes 2 deployments to Afghanistan, 2 rotations to Africa, multiple trips to Europe, and too many states to mention.  My most enjoyable tour was teaching Freshmen Military Leadership at Clemson University. 

It was during this time at Clemson I discovered my gift of helping teens and young twenties hone in their unique skills and what careers they choose to pursue.  I am grateful to be UHC and would be honored to help your high schooler navigate their next steps.
