About Jeremy James

I\'ve loved art since I was a kid, carrying around an art pad and pens everywhere I went. Whether i was drawing a cartoon or sketching a portrait I have always felt a real connection to the world of design.I love running a business but often I wish I could put aside all the business tasks and just focus on creating. I am happiest working with my clients one on one, building a strong relationship with them and collaborating on ways to strengthen their business. It feels great knowing that many of my clients have been with me for years and I\'ve learned the individual needs of each one.I feel that many employers have concerns about hiring someone who has been working freelance. I would love to work as part of a team where other like minded people can collaborate and learn from each other. I want to work where my abilities and experience are trusted and respected. I love environments where fun and relaxation is encouraged, but where hard work is still the number one driving force.I may be old school but I remain on top of the latest design trends through continuous learning and growth, realizing that technology in design is constantly changing.Bottom line, I love design and I will bring that energy, creativity, hard work and knowledge into every project.

Experience

1. Manager

   Captavape

   Apr 2025 — Present · Ogden, UT, US

   Worked as store manager to revitalize store in the wake of Utah\'s flavored vape ban and helped into transitioning the store to carry products beyond vape. I took charge of evaluating and order products to bolster sales. In the short time we reopened, I was able to build a great base of regular customers who I consider my friends.
