About James

My name is James Richey. I have a passion for working with technology; especially with computers and electronics. As a software engineer I am fortunate to work with cutting edge technology on a daily basis.

I constantly seek ways to improve my skills and challenging my world view. This can be learning a new tool, an improved engineering technique, or about a subject I have had no previous knowledge. I find talking with smart and interesting people is one of the best ways to learn about new topics.

My jiu-jitsu coach once said:

People who are successful do not skip steps. They tackle problems one step at a time with purpose.

This is my approach big and complex problems. First, I break down the problem into small bite sized pieces. Then, I focus my effort on completing each piece, one at a time, to the very best of my ability.

When not at work I like to stay active. This includes playing ping pong with friends or practicing Brazilian jiu-jitsu.
