Jim opened the doors of NCC in the fall of 1987. Completing four years in the USAF in 1960, he obtained his Bachelor of Science Degree in Electrical Engineering (BSEE) at Northeastern University in 1965. While pursuing a career in the Computer industry, he earned a Private Pilots license, and a Building Contractors License. Still looking for his niche in the business world, Jim fell in love with the world of private investigations in 1985 at the age of 47. From day one, Jim’s motto has been, “Nothing we do here is cast in stone. We do what we do, the way we do it, because it works best. The instant we discover, find or learn of a better way to do our job…we adopt it, improve it, and use it. We use every opportunity to maintain and improve our sterling reputation.”

Although Jim is now semi-retired he continues to consult and he builds much of the covert equipment we use in the field today.
