MEET
James Reid
James Reid arrived in Washington, DC, as many do—a transplant. Raised in a military family, James traveled a great deal growing up, seeing most of the US by grade school, and ultimately settling in the DC region. James studied Physiology and Neurobiology at the University of Maryland, College Park. When deciding whether or not to pursue medical school, he realized his passion was in business. James successfully started and grew a commercial printing company from scratch and grew it into one of the most successful in the DC region. James attributes his company’s success to two things: a focus on serving the client and establishing scalable systems. James’ printing company’s success ultimately led to its acquisition and James’ exit from that business.
