James joined the Air Force in 2018 as a Security Forces Defender, earning qualification on the Phoenix Raven program, a highly specialized emergency air security service. He faced challenges with his mental health due to a number of traumatic incidents at his previous duty station which led to his enrollment in AFW2. Despite these challenges, James continues to be active and uses adaptive sports to help in his recovery process. This is the first time he is competing with AFW2 and hen looks forward to representing Team Air Force.
