About

Hi, I'm Jamie. I've spent two decades on both sides of the hiring table.

Next Path exists because too many talented professionals get quietly let go and then handed a stack of generic advice. You deserve better — a strategist in your corner who actually knows what today's employers reward.

My story

Why I do this work

I started my career in HR and talent acquisition at a Fortune 100, where I reviewed thousands of resumes and sat in on countless calibration meetings. I learned the difference between the candidates who got moved forward and the ones who — despite being qualified — never made it past the first screen.

Later I led talent strategy for high-growth technology and financial services companies, hiring for everything from individual contributor roles to VP-level searches. Along the way, I saw waves of RIFs reshape entire industries. The pattern was always the same: strong professionals, blindsided by a corporate decision, suddenly asked to market themselves without a playbook.

I founded Next Path to be that playbook. Practical, direct, and rooted in what actually moves the needle today — not job-search advice from a decade ago.

"Your career doesn't need a pep talk. It needs a plan — and someone who's actually placed people in the room you're trying to enter."
