He has brilliantly high standards and demands a certain level of independence and excellence in his staff. He always seemed wise beyond his years - the kind of guy who really commands respect from his team and collaborators. It was 2006 and that show was the super popular comedy improvisation show Thank God You're Here! We went on to work together on and off for four years. After the briefest of interviews, he gave me my first decent gig on a TV show. I first met Jim back when I was a fresh-faced 26 year old! At the time he was working as an art director in film and TV, and I was a fledgling set dresser. He's the guy, in fact, who introduced me to my husband (!), Gordy. I've known Jim for around 8 years (although I must admit it feels like a lot longer). He is one of the most truly talented and versatile creatives I know - an amazing painter, graphic designer and art director, knock-about set builder and a hands-on maker.
