James’ Central Texas roots run deep. He is the fifth generation to be born and raised in Elm Mott, TX. James attended Connally High School class of 98’. He holds and Associates degree in fire Science.

The love of music and the great outdoors were inherent in James’ youth. He worked various jobs throughout High School. James had family that are members of the Waco Fire Department, so he entered the fire academy upon graduation from Connally. He has served the Central Texas community for the past 20 years at the Department and absolutely loves his job and the comradery that goes with it. His current rank is Engineer/Driver for Truck 1 out of East Waco.

Being a firefighter allows James a flexible schedule and through his contacts at Station 1, he developed an interest in real estate and the ability to serve his community outside of the fire station. His love for the great outdoors and living in the country has led him to Twin Bends Realty.

He and his wife Monica are the proud parents of two. They enjoy their quiet time as a family and James keeps his son busy working around the house on his days off. James loves working on cars and has played in various bands throughout Central Texas. He is also a Mason and is currently a member of the Baylor Masonic Lodge.

In James’ own words, “Hard work pays off. I am focused, dedicated, and ready to work hard for you.”
