History – Brenner Career Management (BCM) was originally created to support the great work of our sister organization; Veterans Career Xchange (www.vcxchange.org) non-profit 501(c) (3) Corporation. The successes of our career coaching for transitioning Veterans has now sequed to the private sector. With over 60 years of collective Coaching, Human Resources and Staffing experience we have now expanded our expertise to include Career Coaching, Executive and Business Coaching for the private sector. Although our main focus and core compentency is Coaching, we still partner with VCX for Veteran and non-Veteran placement in career positions. If a Veteran is placed and a fee is paid to BCM the entire fee will be donated to Veterans Career Xchange. BCM not only supports our Veterans but we are now support individual and businesses in the private sector.

Angela Propst , Vice President
Angela comes to Brenner Career Managment (BCM) with a broad range of expertise in recruitment, training and business management. Hoping to make a difference in the lives of others and understanding the importance of helping our veterans, Angela joined the BCM team in 2019 as Vice President.
Angela Began her first career in residential property management, in her first position as Assistant Property Manager. She ended her tenure as Vice President of Operations with a portfolio of over 10,000 apartment homes and commercial properties in Baltimore MD. Here she was responsible for the development of her employees as well as ensuring ach community met budgeting objectives. She spent 17 years in the industry.
Angela held a special place in her heart for helping seniors and decided to follow her passion by choosing a career for helping older adults who wished to remain independent in their homes. She established her company, Home With You Senior Care, in 2005 and grew the business into a profitable and successful home care company. She found that many of her veteran clients were unaware of the financial assistance (Aide and Attendance) available to help them for home care services. Angela, and her team, sought out to ensure all veterans were made aware of these benefits, with community educational seminars, as well as assisting her clients through the application process.
After 14 years of running her home care business, Angela realized it was time to pursue her next dream of moving from Maryland to California. This is where she joined Mark and his team to work with businesses who had the same philosophy about our veterans; supporting veterans through career development and job placement.
