Jim's Story
Life has been good with a great family, the opportunity to travel worldwide and an exciting career history.
I have been married to Colleen for 30 years and we have two sons, Jim IV (26) and Ryan (23). Jim is finishing up his masters at the UofR and Ryan works for Paychex.
After a long corporate career with Kodak and then five years owning my own marketing consulting firm, I recently accepted the position of Vice President of Marketing and Community Services for Seniorsfirst Communities and Services in Rochester who was one of my small clients.
In my career, I have had the opportunity to write feature and cover articles...Expand for more
along with regular columns for international publications in addition to speaking engagements across the US, Canada and Europe.
I still run into a few old CHS friends as I live in Greece where many still reside.
In my spare time, I enjoy great wine, travel, boating, and spending time with my family
I have had the opportunity to travel all over the world. I was on beaches on both side of the Atlantic and both side of the Pacific Oceans in the same year. I also met many interesting people along the way, including a three-hour conversation with Muhammad Ali. I was also on "Entertainment Tonight" once.
Life has been good!
