Bio
Ross Statham
I have known James for over twenty years and have found him a man of the highest caliber and ethics. In my opinion he would be an excellent addition to anyone's team. I have observed him to persevere and work through challenges, and he's impressed me as a man who doesn't take shortcuts. I recommend him without reservation.

I have worked with James Thornton for over two years, we were part of the OFS Fitel Process Engineering group. James later moved to the operations group as a supervisor where he was in charge of operators of an entire shift. During his time at OFS as an Engineer and as a Supervisor he has been very professional in his behavior, always willing to learn and well organized. In both teams, James has been the most organized and the most positive member. Any team would be lucky to have James Thornton on their team, he will be a good asset.
