James is a certified baseball coach and trainer.

James holds an MBA in Marketing and a Master of Science degree in Fitness and Leadership Management. He has always had a love for the game of baseball. As a little league player, he was either the first or second all-star selection for the 12U, 14U and 16U all-star team.

He was a standout high school player, attending both Northside and Harper High School in Atlanta, Georgia. As a lefty, with good speed and a good arm, he played center-field. While at Northside, he batted lead-off and lead his team in batting average and stolen bases. He transferred to Harper for his senior year and as a switch hitter, led his team in homeruns, hitting 3 homeruns right handed and 5 left handed.

After high school, James was interested in playing college baseball at Alabama State University. He was encouraged by his high school coach to tryout as a pitcher, if he wanted to ensure himself a spot on the teams roster. He did just that. When Alabama State’s Coach, Larry Watkins, saw James pitch, he made the team after the first bull-pen session.

Over two seasons at Alabama State, James served as the team’s closer. He did, however, start a few games. Several standout games: 12 strikeouts against Tuskegee University, 14 Strikeouts against Tennessee State University, and 16 Strikeouts against Talladega College. Unfortunately, at the height of his college career, James learned that his father was on his way to prison. In order to support his younger siblings, James decided to withdraw from college and join the military.

James served as a sergeant during Operation Desert Storm, and was highly decorated for his contributions during the war. After the war, he returned to college under the ROTC program at Augusta State University. He earned his college degree, and graduated as the top military science student in his class. He returned to the Army and Iraq, as an Armor Officer. Following his retirement from the Army, he has worked for several fortune 500 companies, wrote several best selling books, and earned 5 college degrees. His goal is to develop as many baseball players as possible to play baseball at the college and professional level. He has been coaching baseball for over 12 years and shows no signs of slowing down.
