Your child meets with a CEO in their target industry.
Every month. For three years.
The PATH Program is a 3-year career mentorship program pairing college freshmen with active C-suite executives across Entertainment, Finance, Tech & AI, Sports, Entrepreneurship, and Real Estate. Structured curriculum. Dedicated coach. A clear path from Day 1.
Industry-specific roadmaps, six career areas deep.
Entertainment & Media
Access the inner workings of agencies, studios, and global streaming networks, an industry with no application funnel.
Mentored access where relationships do the hiring.
Finance & Services
From investment banking to corporate finance, master the language of capital on the industry’s real calendar.
Prepared for finance’s accelerated clock from Day 1.
Tech & AI
Bridge the gap between engineering and leadership, with AI fluency as the foundation, not a specialization.
A deployed AI portfolio and mentors who have shipped.
Sports Industry
Understanding the business of sports, from franchise operations to athlete representation to sports law.
Insider access to the business behind the game.
Entrepreneurship
Build it, bootstrap it, join it early, buy it, or inherit it: the five honest routes to ownership.
A real build with real customers, over three years.
Real Estate
Development, institutional investment, brokerage, and lending, an industry hired through relationships.
A defensible underwrite and the relationships behind it.
Career acceleration is not a sprint.
We provide a monthly cadence of mentorship and structured challenges that build compound value over 36 months.

Getting in was the hard part families already paid for. Getting hired is the part nobody was building. That is the part we build.

Underemployment for recent college graduates (NY Fed).
The degree is no longer a differentiator. It is a baseline.
2,300:1
Students per career-services staff member at the average university (NACE).
At that ratio, guidance is a brochure, not a strategy for a decision that shapes decades.
16%
Of graduates say their university career services were very helpful (Gallup).
For everyone else it was generic advice, or a door never opened. A dedicated coach answers that gap directly.
