A well-known quote from ancient Roman times attributed to Julius Cesar, it appealed to the Nigerian-born North Sydney resident because he relates to it.

James said he was"excited" and"elated" when he found out he was the sole Canadian to receive the scholarship which is valued at more than $200,000 for his three-year program. Another involved being left to care for two of his younger siblings while his father and youngest brother were in hospital in Nova Scotia, where his mother was already working in 2022. The trip was meant to be overnight. However, James' father Oliver and his then seven-year-old brother Aaron were injured when the stairs of their AirBnB collapsed while they were on them.

A member of the Interact Club at Memorial, James has helped fundraise for community initiatives. He has also completed training with the Red Cross in opioid harm reduction and has competed in math competitions held at Waterloo University. Highly competitive, St. Andrews alumni include Scottish kings, Prince William, author Fey Welton and scientist Edward Jenner who discovered the smallpox vaccine in 1796.
