Career-Driven Partnerships That Inspire & Convert
I’m Jade WaltersWhether I’m on stage, on socials, or behind the scenes of a brand campaign, my mission is simple: help the next generation design careers they’re excited about - and help the organizations that serve them do it better.
01SPEAKING ENGAGEMENTS
Keynotes & workshops for early career professionals and the people who serve them.
Whether you're planning a university event, national conference, or internal training, I deliver talks that blend lived experience with actionable insights. As a TEDx speaker and trusted Gen Z voice, I empower audiences to take ownership of their careers and navigate the workplace with confidence.
Topics include: Career Confidence, Employer Branding, Job Search Strategies Gen Z at Work, and more.
02BRAND COLLABORATIONS
Authentic content that resonates with Gen Z.
As the founder of The Ninth Semester, I specialize in helping brands speak to (not at) early career talent. From influencer campaigns to sponsored content and creative partnerships, I translate brand goals into results through storytelling that connects.
I also collaborate with brands that align with my beauty, lifestyle, and entrepreneurial journey. My audience shows up for content that’s real, relatable, and rooted in shared experience—and I bring that same energy to every campaign.
Ideal for : EdTech platforms, recruiting tools, DEI-forward organizations, consumer brands/companies looking to show up authentically across beauty, lifestyle, and career spaces.
