James could always be counted on to deliver exceptional support and guidance to the pricing and revenue management teams. His ability to clearly articulate "as is" and ideal state during the foundation stages of the pricing program made him an invaluable asset. James quickly became the teams go to person for technical questions, as he not only understood the overarching strategy, he had his hands on the ball in the field to tell us how it "really operates". It was a pleasure to work with James and I hope to be able to do so again in the future.
