“When James first asked me to join his team, I will admit I was apprehensive and excited at the same time. He was spearheading a unique venture within IZEA that held a lot of uncertainty with just as much possibility. His passion and drive to grow his team were evident and he always took his responsibilities to himself, the team, and company in stride. James’ extensive knowledge of business processes, financial modeling, industry insights, and his technical aptitude not only led our team forward but also taught me so much along the way. His ability to look at problems from all perspectives and map solutions that align technical capabilities, business agendas, and general user experience make him an invaluable asset to our team and IZEA as a company. James is the person who is always thinking of the details no one else sees that are sometimes the most integral parts of execution. I wholeheartedly trust and respect James as both a colleague and a friend. In working together for over two years, we accomplished things so many people thought were not possible, but he ensured we always persevered. He is a person I can always lean on in good times and bad. His leadership and general good spirit made me enjoy the work we did together and made leaving IZEA extremely difficult; it’s not every you have the chance to work with someone like him. I know his abilities will lead him to amazing heights and he will have major impacts in everything he does. ”
