James Weliver's Summary

I am a multimedia guru, nay, nut.

My professional experiences have placed me in an array of public services. I have fought fires, responded to medical emergencies, and have tutored those with severe special needs for my home town; trained as an infantry soldier for my state and country; and I have been chased by angry Common Terns as I helped tell the story of the nation's leading conservation agency.

During these times, I personally developed my skills as a field photographer, video producer, and web editor while honing my reach into the field of social marketing.

Today, I have the privilege to expand these skills with an amazing, Boston based start-up that is redefining commerce in a way that empowers citizens and gives their purchase meaning.

I'd say it's a good start, but I'm always looking ahead–stay tuned.
