“We collaborated on product and marketing concepts and strategies at Xtime. James is a highly creative thinker who can generate an array of ideas to solve a difficult problem. James addresses design through the careful study of the various user groups and profiles, conducts detailed analyses of their behavior. He also has a highly refined sense of aesthetics that allows him to present his thoughts in a compelling manner.”
David Sturtz
“We hired James to design new landing pages for our e-commerce business. He started by sharing his creative concepts with his own focus group of our potential customers to come to us with something that would truly drive sales. He then handled the client-agency relationship beautifully. He is a delight to work with, and his can-do attitude, terrific creative and lightening-speed results make him an excellent business partner. I would definitely work with James again.”
Alice Ayres
“Not only is James a great designer, but he also has a wonderful heart and understands how important it is for all of us to support the communities in which we live and work. Along with James I was fortunate to run the nation's largest graphic design-based elementary education outreach program. Known as Studio 5, each year we matched dozens of volunteer designers to classrooms in the San Francisco public school district and taught basic language arts, math and science skills through the power of design. Truly life changing stuff. Great design, greater heart.”

“James holds this truth to be self-evident - you don't know what your users think until you observe them in action. To this end, he is relentless in cultivating relationships with users and has a knack for uncovering game-changing insights. James also acts as a passionate UX advocate, bearing the torch of UX-centered design to all corners of an organization. James is one of the few true UX unicorns I know, creating on point, beautiful, and measurable solutions for future iterations.”
