Moving On With His Life
Alongside James’s growth in the Navy and the CIA, he would also begin to think about his future. After consulting for the military, he chose to work for companies like Microsoft, and he eventually became a consultant for a number of companies. Sometime in the latter part of the 90’s, he was able to put up ‘one of the first commercial websites focused on financial markets with his brother.’ And if that wasn’t amazing enough, in 1999, they would sell their company for millions of dollars.
Then 9/11 Happened
When 9/11 happened, the entire world was in shock, sorrow and anger. James decided that he would help the CIA one more time by creating a program that would allow the military to see how to deal with terrorist interactions. He says, “I offered to simulate Las Vegas getting hit with a dirty bomb and how rescuers could lock down the city.”
