Today, James specializes in serving the needs of individuals, nonprofits and small businesses.

James holds a bachelor’s degree in Agricultural Education and Agribusiness from California Polytechnic State University and often leverages this background as part of his practice. Where education is the centerpiece of his practice, he loves working in an agricultural-centric area to ensure that all have access to quality, trustworthy advice.

James was raised in rural Mendocino County, California, and considers himself a native to the area. He is married and he and his wife, Gina, have three children--Sasha, Emersyn, and Lucas.  The latest family addition is a new Britnepoo pup named Otis. 

James is a passionate supporter of local youth sports, healthcare, and early childhood education.  He is also a proponent of community engagement and currently serves on the Finance Committee for the Healthcare Foundation Northern Sonoma County, as Board Member for Alexander Valley Healthcare, and as a coach for Cloverdale Youth soccer.
