Our Compadre Jim has a unique, strategic, and effective leadership style. He’s a “go-to guy” who makes things happen. He’s unconcerned with who gets the credit; he’s just focused on the results. That’s why he’s so special, respected, and admired.

An attorney and banker by profession, he also serves on a variety of governmental policy-making boards in non-elective positions.
