TESTIMONIALS
"Jim is a great creative collaborator — a guy who can both generate great ideas and enhance other people’s concepts and then bring them to fruition. I have worked closely with him on many clients and projects across a broad range of industries. Jim brings several ingredients to every project he undertakes: an enthusiastic curiosity, a calm and competent professionalism, and a willingness to do whatever it takes to satisfy the client."
- Edwin Foster, Creative Director, MITRE
"Jim has been a valued member of our extended team for several years. What impresses me most about Jim is his ability to quickly wrap his head around difficult and/or obscure concepts (through a combination of client interviews and his own research) and deliver thoughtful, coherent, and extremely readable content."
- Alex Nosevich, Agency Partner, Brand Strategy
Commonwealth Creative
"I had the luck and pleasure of hiring the Straitsmouth team, and specifically Jim, for the past 6+ years. In this time Jim has become the voice of the AR for Enterprise Alliance (AREA). His ability to take complex technology terminology and solutions, and distill and communicate the important features and messages has just been amazing. I would definitely recommend Jim, not only for his excellent writing skills, but his ability to work to deadlines and get stuff done. A true expert in his field."
- Mark Sage, Executive Director, AR for Enterprise Alliance
