Jim is an enthusiastic, passionate and empathetic User Researcher and team member who I had the pleasure of working with. Collaborating with him was incredibly smooth as he has the ability to create a fun and comfortable dynamic of knowledge and idea sharing. Instances of this include efficiently analysing survey results together. This also meant that handovers during situations such as annual leave was straighforward, as he is proactive, alert, adaptable and easily familiarises himself with new problems and processes. Moreover, I particularly noticed his skill for leading workshops, when he lead the session for us to ideate on how to best use the Dovetail tool for interview analysis. He created an environment where he ensured everyone had the chance to share their point of view and kept the enthusiasm in the space and free of judgement. Jim always kept us informed of what was going on in his product teams and also shared his perspective on projects, such as the chosen research methodology and the reason for it, making his vast research knowledge clear. Overall, I am certain of Jim's ability to take on his new adventures and challenges and hope that our professional paths will cross once again!

I had the pleasure of working alongside Jim in the Monetization Product Team at StudySmarter, where he consistently demonstrated his expertise as a User Researcher. Together, we dived into the complexities of premium subscription and in-app advertising, uncovering valuable opportunities that significantly impacted our product's success. Jim was truly the voice of the customer. After discussing the research objectives, he managed the entire research process with finesse and dedication. His commitment to understanding and representing the user's perspective was outstanding. Jim's unique blend of empathy for users and a keen understanding of business objectives sets him apart. In a domain like Monetization Research, which requires a specialized approach, Jim took the initiative to educate himself on new methodologies, ensuring that he could offer the best support to our team. Beyond his professional capabilities, Jim and I shared numerous coffee chats that I was looking forward to. His sense of humor and positive energy always made our exchanges unique. These moments have strengthened our professional and personal connection. Jim's open-mindedness, easy-going nature, and authentic warmth make him a fantastic colleague and friend. I wholeheartedly recommend Jim for any endeavor he chooses to pursue, confident that he will always bring a mix of passion, expertise, and a delightful presence to the table. Hopefully, our professional paths will cross again soon.
