In 2008, he received a certificate of advanced study in adolescence education from the College of Saint Rose. In 2013, he completed the Complex Systems Summer School of the Santa Fe Institute. He received his doctorate in physics in 2020 from the State University of New York at Albany. In addition to teaching as a graduate assistant, he has taught physics and mathematics at Schenectady County Community College and Fulton-Montgomery Community College and physics at SUNY Albany. He was listed as a teacher ranked as excellent by his students while studying at the University of Illinois in the late Nineties and received an award for academic excellence at the University of Vermont and awards for high test scores and voluntary service at SUNY Albany. James dropped out of both high school and the top graduate program in condensed matter physics in the United States. Since August of 2020, he has written to address the global polycrisis, the complex of mutually reinforcing crises afflicting all life on Earth.
