James is a Conservation Interpreter at the Dallas Zoo and a Senior Guest Experience Associate at the Children's Aquarium Dallas. He has been working as an interpreter for over 7 years, yet his connection with interpretation extends far beyond that, spurred by his deep appreciation for communication and human bonds. His travels commenced in late 2020, leading him to delve into diverse cultures across the globe, ranging from residing in the heart of the Amazon in Ecuador to exploring ancient archaeological marvels throughout the Americas. His current aim is clear: to inspire hope and fortitude in every individual he encounters. He joins NAI's Heather Manier and Emily McCowan this week.
