James has worked for me at Parexel as an IT Site Services Specialist for many years. He is a great technician, well-versed in hardware, Windows OS and a wide variety of applications. James works in the office but is very capable at doing remote support as well. James always goes above and beyond to resolve user issues, staying late or coming is early if needed. He is well-liked by his customers and his co-workers.

James is a great guy. I worked with him for the past decade, and he is a perfect team mate. He is punctual, dedicated and very hard working. He works well individually, but also performs exceptionally when working as a group. He is very patience and respectful when assisting fellow co-workers, and delivers satisfactory customer service. Because I've known and work closely with him for about a decade now, I consider him as a family. Keep up the good work. Cheers.
