GET TO KNOW JAMES
What’s a lesson from early in your career that still guides your work today?

One lesson that stuck with me early on is how powerful clear communication can be. When everyone understands the goal and feels heard, the work flows more smoothly—and the results are always better.

What’s a quirky interest people are surprised to learn about you?

People are always surprised to find out I’m a hobbyist beekeeper—it’s a quiet, fascinating balance to my fast-paced work life.

What principle or mindset shapes how you approach problem-solving?

I approach every challenge with curiosity first. Instead of assuming the answer, I dig in, ask questions, and explore what’s really happening. That mindset helps me uncover smarter, more sustainable solutions for clients.

What outdoor activity instantly helps you reset or feel inspired?

Getting out on the water or into the woods does it every time. Sailing, hiking, or camping helps me clear my head and come back refreshed with new ideas.
