Description

Hi I'm James! I'm an adventurous individual with a passion for exploring the world, immersing myself in different cultures, and capturing the moments along the way with my camera.

I was born and raised in California primarily speaking English with a bit of French here and there. I'm both a US and UK Citizen, with half of my family in London and the surrounding area. I've had the opportunity to travel all over Europe and North America, with the hopes of expanding my travel coverage.

After graduating university with a computer science degree, I worked for two different tech companies in San Diego for the past 5 years. I recently quit my job and am looking to take a long break from being in an office. I hope to travel as much as possible and capture all of the moments along the way.

I have enjoyed participating in numerous hobbies throughout my life, but I specifically enjoy skiing, cycling, football (soccer), and music the most. I love spending my time outdoors as much as possible. I currently am the head coach of my university ski team and have worked with children in the past through software development camps and football programs. I also tutor in Mathematics, Sciences, and English.

I am a very quick learner, flexible, easy going, and a hard worker. I would love the opportunity to work, learn or share experiences with you!

More details about your skills

As a computer science graduate, I possess a strong technical background, particularly in software IT and problem-solving. However, it's my passion for photography and videography that truly inspires me. I have experiencing with building houses in Mexico, having limited knowledge of carpentry and construction. I've worked with children at a software development summer camp and I have experience coaching both football(soccer) and skiing for children. I am a very eager and fast learner and pick up on new skills quickly
