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

Helping professionals find their next path with confidence

For more than 25 years, I've built my career within a single organization, growing through leadership roles that strengthened my expertise in strategy, governance, risk management, compliance, operational excellence, and organizational transformation. That journey gave me a unique perspective—not only on what organizations need to succeed, but on what it takes for professionals to grow, adapt, and lead through change.

Throughout my career, I've partnered with executive leadership to solve complex business challenges, improve organizational performance, and develop high-performing teams. I've also had a front-row seat to the realities of today's workforce—where restructuring, career transitions, and changing business priorities can reshape even the most successful careers.

Those experiences inspired me to create Next Path

I founded Next Path to help professionals confidently navigate career transitions by combining real-world executive leadership experience with personalized career coaching. My goal is to help every client communicate their value, strengthen their professional brand, and position themselves for the opportunities they deserve.

Whether you're rebuilding after a reduction in force, pursuing your next leadership role, or preparing for a career change, I'll work with you to develop a strategy that goes beyond a résumé. Together, we'll build a compelling personal brand, optimize your LinkedIn presence, prepare for interviews, and create a clear roadmap for your next career move.

Because finding your next opportunity isn't just about getting another job—it's about building the future you want.

"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."

Beyond my career

The human side of leadership

Leadership isn't defined solely by titles—it's shaped by the people we serve and the relationships we build.

As a proud wife, mother, grandmother, and the oldest of four sisters, I've learned that resilience, empathy, and integrity are just as important as strategy and execution. Those values influence every conversation I have and every client I support.

When you work with Next Path, you're not just receiving career services—you're partnering with someone who understands both the business side of leadership and the human side of career transition.

Let's map your next path — together.
