Jim was a full time physical education teacher and coach at Madison High School in Madison Heights, Michigan. Jim coached football for twenty-five years, the last twelve years as the head coach.

Now that Jim has his health and life back things just keep getting better. How can you beat life on the beach and a successful home base business? He is involved in many charities. He also does personal appearances and motivational speaking.

Jim serves on three boards that he is passionate about; the PWHF, the Bridges and the MSU Space Coast Alumni Club.
