James is a late bloomer who likes to speak about himself in the third person.​
 

After years of hard work and determination while serving in the United States Army,  James decided to  start on his journey with Chenzira Temple No. 235. The temple is on its way and moving these days so he gets to pass his time having lunches and investing in ideas and people to help Promote the goals and initiatives of the A.E.A.O.N.M.S North and South Jurisdictions Inc. and Chenzira Temple No. 235 in the Oasis of Hattiesburg, Desert of Mississippi.
 

He is passionate about technology, business and young intelligent minded people, who are always looking to expand their minds, advance their lives, and pave the way for our children's futures. He has been described as "One of the nicest nobels in the Oasis of Hattiesburg, Desert of Mississippi."​
 

He is always available for talks and happy to meet bright young people with great ideas.
