James grew up in a large farm family in the Tripoli/Waverly area and graduated from the University of Northern Iowa with a degree in Marketing/Advertising. He lived in Kansas City for a few years and moved back in 1992. Since then, he has owned a couple of businesses and worked in advertising, gaining more than 25 years of advertising sales experience. He has been with KWWL since January 2007. He has two children: a son, who is an architect in Chicago, and a daughter, who is a labor and delivery nurse in Denver, Colorado. James really enjoys meeting people and helping them with planning what is best for their situation. “Every business has their unique background and plan for where they want to go, it is my job to help make that plan work for them!” “Anyone in sales should be in it to do what’s best for the client, because if it’s not, you won’t have a long relationship.”
