I have the very fortunate opportunity to have been Jim's supervisor, associate, client and friend for over 20 years. I have seen Jim perform in some of the most demanding situations and with the upmost degree of dedication and professionalism. I would not hesitate to recommend him for any position, to any prospective employer, or for any potential proposal as one of the key team members. His ability to capture the essence of the situation and perform at the highest level of performance to arrive at the best solution is unprecedented.

I have worked directly for Jim at The University of North Texas, as well as indirectly while employed at Texas Department of Criminal Justice. I have always found Jim to be an Honest, and Fair Minded Supervisor. One can always depend on whatever Jim shares with you. Jim is very easy to work with so long as you are up front and honest in your dealings, you can trust Jim. I have found Jim to be extremely knowledgeable when dealing with Construction Issues, his guidance has aided in the prevention of possibile claims. Jim would be an asset to any organization needing an Architect level Director of Construction.
