James Prior Email & Phone Number

Life follows a path of one decision at a time.Having two beautiful daughters, my first when i was 19 created a path for me and my partner dedicated to improving our situation, too the success we have both become.I knew from a very young age, my skill sets lay with working with my hands which led to the best opportunity i could have ever asked for as a teenager. When you think of the pinacol, and most known name of the motor industry "FERRARI" will always stand out. That's where i found me! My professional career starting as the first factory backed Ferrari apprenticeship as a motor vehicle technician, this has developed me to the man i am today. The attention to detail and customer care is at its core and now mine too.Fast forward 10 years in the motor industry, before even being 30 i was given an opportunity to become a workshop manager, all be it a small team but was a massive shock to my system, primarily being that middleman from a client point of view and also helping the employees with any professional and personal problems, ensuring that the mental health and attitude to work is high.Taking a massive change in career path as new challenge, given an opportunity to work in the Lightning protection industry as a test engineer as long side my old man who’s spent most of my life in the industry, now this developed very quickly from my previous skills to the office side of the business (might I add perfect timing before the winter, I now work from home 😊)But that’s professional, how about the personal. Racing the isle of man TT has always been a dream as my dad used to race sidecars and did once compete on the isled. However, my dream is on 2 wheels, so who knows one day I may get there, but in life you must manifest things into existence.Along with my love of racing on 2 wheels, powerlifting has become something that has massively helped with my struggles over the years. The out let it gave me, on top of the success I felt pushing those PRs and prior to Covid, getting a top qualifier and an invitation to compete in a national competition on my first event. That made me and my family incredibly proud.So when people say work hard, train harder. I embody that feeling.
