James supported the eCommerce website I oversaw while employed at Ryders Eyewear. Prior to hiring James, we had launched a new site that was poorly built, with broken code that didn't follow best practices. James was not only able to 'bandage' the site to function the way we had originally envisioned, he was also able to continuously evolve the website. James was reliable with timelines and provided clear communication around targets and potential hurdles. I would certainly work with James again.

Mr. Higgins is a fabulous project manager. His technical background shines allowing him to understand the impact of different approaches to solving complex problems. He also has a knack for adopting ideal programming and management practices that create less work in the future instead of accruing technical debt. I would not hesitate to recommend him as someone capable of bringing massive value to the table.
