Jamie Ousterout founded Stabilimenta in 2018 after years of advising C-suite leaders across professional services, healthcare, technology, nonprofits, and academia on strategy, operations, and client experience. From 2020 to 2024, she stepped away from consulting to put her own advice into practice, joining The Diversity Movement as Chief Experience Officer where she built its Client Success team from the ground up and helped lead the company through its acquisition. She returned to Stabilimenta in 2024, bringing that hands-on experience back to her clients.

A Cornell graduate and Certified Diversity Executive (CDE)®, Jamie was named a Triangle Business Journal "40 Under 40" leader and is active on nonprofit boards in the Raleigh community.
