James Everett
My interests and passions have always fluctuated between the world of the physical and the one created in my mind.
I was pushed by my father to pursue personal training and the fitness industry since it related to my physical skillsets, and I was very familiar with weight rooms during sports conditioning. I ended up managing gyms, doing personal training and nutrition sales out of NYC. I had success but found that I became more interested in the process of self discovery and understanding other’s motivations.
At the deepest level all business is understanding human behavior and what we as a society are going to do next. This mindset got me very interested in entrepreneurship.
Then I stumbled across UX Design and found a career where my passions and skills met.
I have learned skills that allow me to directly contribute to problem solving while diving even deeper into understanding human behavior. This career change has allowed me to make more of an impact on people and create a positive contribution in my work life.
I enjoy what I do because I am able to create meaningful products through the process of understanding the user's needs and pain points. My background gives me the ability to offer unique insights and understanding of both the humans and mechanisms that construct this ever evolving industry.
This fulfills me with a sense of passion and meaning that I hope to share with everyone, everywhere.
