About James Pigg

I’m a seasoned business veteran committed to the pursuit of lifelong learning, acquiring and sharpening personal skills, and practicing safer, healthier, and more sustainable living habits. Looking forward to the resumption of a barely civil but at least functioning society some day. My forty plus years of professional work experience has taken me from selling specialty light bulbs out of a cargo van, to building and growing an expansive multi-million dollar sales territory, to managing daily operations of a retail business unit which generated over $2M in annual revenue, among other stops. All the paths I’ve traveled and the network connections made taught me invaluable insights into people, and I wouldn’t trade those experiences or the people I met for any amount of money. What drove me in the workplace was having the heart of a teacher, dedication to the principles of servant leadership, and a strong desire to help leave my community a better place. My leadership skills were recognized by the various professional, civic, and networking organizations with which I’ve been involved. For now, I’m adapting to retirement by reading more, eating better, stressing less, and engaging in polite public discourse with my neighbors once again.
