Meet Keenan D. Hogg, Founder and Talent Strategist at OPNX
Keenan D. Hogg is the Founder and Talent Strategist at OPNX, where he helps professionals navigate job transitions with purpose, direction, and renewed confidence. With over 15 years of experience in recruiting, talent acquisition leadership, and career coaching, Keenan has supported hundreds of job seekers and hiring leaders through the challenges of career change and workforce strategy. But his drive to launch OPNX didn’t come from credentials alone, it came from personal experience. After walking through career setbacks of his own and feeling the weight of a prolonged job search, Keenan knows what it’s like to feel stuck, unseen, and unsure of the next move. He’s been on the receiving end of outplacement services that promised guidance but offered only recycled templates and vague encouragement—offering answers without substance. That frustration sparked a mission. At OPNX, Keenan delivers something different: a process that’s strategic, deeply personal, and rooted in real-world hiring insight. He meets people where they are and walks with them toward new possibilities, not with fluff, but with focused steps and honest support. His work is shaped not just by industry know-how, but by the anchoring force of faith that sustained him through seasons of uncertainty. Today, Keenan continues to partner closely with clients across industries, helping them articulate their value, sharpen their message, and open doors they didn’t think were available. He’s known for his candor, compassion, and relentless commitment to helping others not just get hired—but rise stronger on the other side.
