About Kenyatta Young
Pencil Skirt Project ®
Founder & Executive Coach
It's time to get confident and land the job, benefits, & life you want!
I am a Career Coach, Speaker, and an accomplished Global Human Resources Executive with 18 years of experience working for Fortune 50 companies such as PepsiCo, J.P. Morgan Chase, Bank of America and, most recently, Meta (Facebook).
It was only then, after completing my life-long career goals of working at top-tier organizations, that I realized there had to be more to life.
For this reason, I created a company called Pencil Skirt Project® (PSP), to help professionals empower themselves by giving them step-by-step advice on how to become confident, negotiate the life they want, and live out their purpose each and every day.
It's time for you to dominate - in and outside of the workplace!

“My experience with Kenyatta was outstanding. Her analysis of my opportunity and its compensation value was critical to contract negotiations. Not only did I have a clear understanding of my “ask”, she coached me on the best way to approach the discussion, which included the research that substantiated my perspective. While working with Kenyatta was a pleasure, the true testament is the outcome her advice yielded. In my case, working with PSP resulted in securing a significantly enhanced offer. Thank you Kenyatta!”
