TESTIMONIALS

"James has taught me so much over the years. His vision, expertise, and the way he brings it all to life is inspiring. He really is a 'hospitality producer' in every sense, and I’m proud to call him both a friend and a mentor."

Adam Leonti
(Chef, Alba and Cucina Alba, LA/NY)

 

"I've known James for nearly 20 years, having worked with him on the Bowery opening. He's a true one off with the X factor that creative types need, the rare ability to excel in both the creative and the operational stuff, quite rare and impressive. Plus, he can play the bass line to any pop song you throw at him, so he wins on every front."

​Johnny Christ
(Director of Sales, Hotel El Roblar, Ojai, CA.)
