Founder, SCO Projects LLC
James brings more than two decades of executive and senior leadership experience across public service, enterprise operations, community investment, and nonprofit work.
His experience in coaching and youth development keeps the human side of systems close to the work. His approach is grounded in servant leadership: understand the people, remove friction, and help the organization carry out its mission.
SCO is where those disciplines connect, through practical workflows, useful software, and thoughtful use of AI.
