Background
Growing up in Southern NH, Jim had many friends and was blessed with a loving and supportive family. Admittedly, not always the best student; Jim followed his older sister's (Aimee) being named Valedictorian as the subsequent grade's class clown. After attending a few different colleges he landed at the University of Tampa. In April of 2005, his younger brother (Andy) sustained a spinal cord injury after a balcony fall. Returning to school for his senior year, Jim graduated in May of 2006 with an Economics degree.
