Colleagues describe him as "I’ve worked with James over approximately the past 15 years. He has been the IT Development Manager on many projects for applications which I was the business owner for. James has always been able to understand the business needs and transform them into system functionality that not only meets the business expectation, but usually exceeds them because of his vast understanding of the business process as well as the programming requirements. James was always a great partner in making recommendations to solve business problems with system enhancements/updates. He was always able to explain the impact of system changes he and his team were making in a way that allowed the business users to clearly understand which made the user experience virtually seamless. He was always upfront and realistic when setting expectations and was always aware and conscience of delivering projects with as little impact to the user group and the end user customers as possible. He is a great partner and a true team player who always has the best interest of his team, his partners and the company in mind. He is someone who I always look forward to working with and we have delivered many successful and beneficial projects over the years. " and "I worked with James on several projects where he was instrumental in implementing Verizon's highly effective systems to drive its credit management and accounts receivable strategies. I found him to be not only a highly effective results oriented manager but also one of the most methodical and organized people I know. He is acknowledged as an expert in application development methodologies and their relevant tooling. James' calm and thoughtful approach makes it easy for him to build relationships with his partners and other stakeholders. I endorse him as a great addition to any role, project or team."
