35andRetired*
Hi! I'm James!I’m a Jesus follower, happily married since 2009, and an enthusiastic father of 3.
I like the outdoors (backpacking, rock climbing, paddling, mountain biking), philosophy, woodworking, automotive, fixing broken stuff, and anything to do with family.
I am an ASE master mechanic w/ ~50 engineering college credits to my name &17 years of experience in automotive, specifically working at VW in Michigan, Wolfsburg, and Chattanooga in Quality Assurance & Research and Development.
I retired* in May 2023 with $400,000 saved, no debt or mortgage, & a minimum $1,800 in monthly expenses after hearing clearly from God that it was time to take the step of faith I had been planning for (google "financial movement FIRE") long before I hit my FIRE number. He has yet to reveal what I will do next so for the time being, I am enjoying being a full time dad and husband among other side projects.
I hope you find some inspiration, encouragement, or at the very least some instruction!!
