Hi, I’m James Hickey, a creative strategist and content creator with 11+ years in brand storytelling and hundreds of short-form videos (2M+ views). I’m a confident, personable presenter who thrives in live formats, welcomes audiences, fields real-time questions, and keeps energy high while staying on brief. I enjoy discussing lifestyle, travel, arts and beauty topics. I script tight hooks, collaborate with producers, and broadcast from a pro home setup (camera, lighting, mic, teleprompter, stable internet) with reliable delivery and a calm, clear voice.
