Total waste of time.

The stories you don't read in the headlines.

It's not an easy thing to achieve.

Took it off the shelf and dusted it off and tried it again.

To ride the ups and downs of the startup life.

You need to really want it.

It's not just about technology.

All this and more on Code Story.

I'm your host, Noah Labhart.

And today, how James Davies is reimagining business process so you can orchestrate your work across the enterprise.

James Davies lives in the Maryland area and started his career at the crossroads of tech and the auto industry.

His first girlfriend's father owned some car lots, so he went to work there, wrote some software, and propelled his success at those dealerships.

He notes that the auto industry was fun and has a lot of moving parts, but was pretty taxing personally.

And outside of tech, he's married with two kids.

He grew up around construction, so he enjoys getting his hands dirty and building things.

In fact, he's fixing up the barn of the recent home he bought, framing, doing the plumbing, and making it livable.

James was working for the State Department as a consultant and was a customer of his current venture.

He was chosen to implement the solution, which turned out to be a successful project.

Post that project, he was approached by the company to lead projects on the East Coast and eventually landed in the CEO role.

This is James' creation story at Kinetic Data.
