From rep hockey to coaching soccer, roping, rodeos and horseback riding, James has embraced all that Williams Lake has to offer. Now pursuing a career in economic development, he enjoys the diversity of work and the comradery he has found working for the Tŝilhqot’in National Government. He is excited by the influx of young professionals throughout Williams Lake and the surrounding area, and new friends keep life fresh. After living away from his hometown, he knows with the reasonable cost of living, young professionals can build a dynamic lifestyle that includes luxuries out of reach to those starting a career in larger centres. With many benefits like four season climate, nature at his doorstep, workplace mentorship, and the deep respect and acknowledgement of indigenous culture, James is happy to call Williams Lake home.
