Same thing happened to me. Absolute crickets from a partial - even after nudging. I tried her again with a newer book years later, though I never heard back, and again - crickets.
It appears Jamie only wants to champion one POC writer, which is super weird because don’t advocate for it, if your true intentions are to represent only one. But hey - her prerogative. Good luck

I wouldn't recommend querying this agent. I queried Jamie back in June of 2023 and got a partial request a day after sending. I nudged three months later and received nothing in response. And then during DVPit, she liked my pitch. When I told her that she still had my partial, she said she'd get back to me "soon." It is now May of 2024 and I never heard back from her. Out of courtesy, I even nudged her when I got an offer of rep, again, silence. It feels performative to me to claim to champion POC writers and join in pitch events but not bother to respond to said POC writers.
