About Vendor
Learn more about this vendor for your event.
Although born blind, James Garriss was taught that his opportunities were limitless despite his limitations. At four years old with three major surgeries and enough vision to see the big E on an eye chart, James was photocopying jet stream maps for his families business. Fair and unfair were unacceptable concepts during his upbringing. Instead he learned how to be a solution, not an addition to a problem be it his own, his families or now as manager of Browning Media, his business.
As a motivational speaker, James brings a unique mix of story, humor and experience to any meeting or conventions. As a key contributor in increasing a company's revenue over 300% in 5 short years, he has worn many hats and can sympathize with the hardships of nearly every departmental need of a company. Be it managing, marketing, selling, research or leading, James can help departments overcome all forms of adversity. Additionally, his visual disability has allowed him to utilize non-traditional concepts to delivering better business building skills. Plus, being blind has allowed him to stumble through company barriers in humorous but also informative ways. With some family members in the business with him, they would continuously push him with one hand while covering their eyes with the other. Because of this unique upbringing and background James has presented all over the US with concepts like

Browning Media has been presenting information on climate and weather expectations for over forty years. While they specialize in 3-6 month outlooks, their research allows them to determine multi-year natural climatological impact on
