James’ Gift

One of the couple of things that we offer is we will give people who are willing to give us 15 minutes for a phone conversation. We will donate to a United Way approved association of their choice for $25. There's an opportunity for a greater donation. 

Then we also are currently offering between one and three hours of a free assessment, depending on which pillar of opportunity you're looking for, whether it's applications, infrastructure security. We are offering our time and services just to kind of give people a frame of mind whether it's about an insecure incident response plan. Whether it's about an application that they need help with, we're willing to offer that time.

James’ Advice

I had a nice biblical quote that I can't recite from from scratch at this point in time. But it basically alluded to never be complacent when it comes to your personal professional work. There is what you do every day at work and then there's everything you do outside of work. Just don't be complacent. Always be pushing yourself, always drive yourself. But be patient because being impatient can also hinder your drive
