James is a task oriented individual. I found James to be highly personable and professional. He consistently over-delivered. I would be proud to have James on any team, his honesty, loyalty and strong work ethic would make him a great fit for any responsibility.

James is a high energy leader with the ability to work in many different situations. James has proven his leadership skills over the span of time that I have known him by leading the Order of the Arrow lodge and building up interest in its members to participate in the events and activities of the lodge. James is also dedicated to what he believes in as seen in his willingnes to serve multiple terms as lodge chief.
