The second son of a sailor and born in San Diego California, James landed in New Orleans in 1988. James graduated from John Ehret High in Marrero Louisiana. After graduation he married his high school sweetheart and began a family. While attending college, James’ father-in-law said “you’re a big nerd, why not go work for Rent-A-Nerd?”. An especially nerdy applicant, James was hired by cell phone on his way home. When a partner left the company, James joined on for the long term. James earned his Bachelor of Science degree in Computer Information Systems in 2005 from Tulane University.

In May of 2010 James earned his MBA from Tulane University, completing a degree that he began pursuing right when Hurricane Katrina struck.

James' many responsibilities include consultations, project management, contract support, network disaster recovery, server configurations, human resources, and killing bugs in the office.
