Comic geeks come and go but James keeps bringing the heat. Over the last decade James has worked in animation, creating thousands of characters, as the Character Design Supervisor for the Emmy Award winning FOX show "King of the Hill", "Goode Family", and his own "Thunderstruck".

Notable works include the animated series Me, Eloise! where James transformed the International Bestselling children's book into a sensational hit amongst little girls everywhere. He was subsequently honored with an Emmy for "Individual Achievement Award in Animation" in 2007.

A self proclaimed 'white trash' connoiseur you may recognize some James's successful product lines "The Official Mullet Reference Guide" sold internationally in novelty and bookstores.

James has also worked in advertisement and graphic design with corporate clients such as Pepsi and Fox Mobile. James specializes in development for intellectual properties, consumer products, and production design for film and television.

As an avid outdoorsman James looks for any opportunity to travel and explore. James leads mountain climbs in California's great Sierra Nevada mountain range during the summer months. His childlike imagination keeps him constantly entertained and his pastimes include scuba diving, snowboarding, mountain biking, charcter safaris, and basketball.

James currently resides in Venice, CA and continues to work on developing his own projects.
