Making a Career Pivot
From finding opportunities to navigating financial challenges, three locals will share how they carved out their paths.

Tiffany Maxey
After spending 13+ years as a CPA, Tiffany has embraced a more creative and community-centered life. She serves as the operations director for Love Live Local and runs Salty Duck Art Studio, a private paint night business that brings people together for fun, laid-back art experiences with a bold twist. Leaning into her creative side has been more than just a career shift—it’s been a path toward living in harmony with herself, blending her love for connection, self-expression, and the joy of creating something meaningful.

Jared Rogers
Jared Rogers is the Director of Resource Development for the United Way of Greater Plymouth County. He has a passion for forging connections to help serve those in the local community. Prior to the nonprofit space, Jared was engaged in the craft beverage world, most recently with Cape Cod Beer!

Jasmine Valdes
Born in Florida, Jasmine moved to the Cape in 2020. She has worked in the restaurant industry since age 13 and, just over a year ago, transitioned to a career at Housing Assistance. On the weekends, she bartends at Hog Island—can’t leave the restaurant life just yet!
