James Hash, our newest associate, grew up on a cattle farm in Alleghany County, North Carolina. He attended the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill as a North Carolina Teaching Fellow, majoring in both United States history and in journalism. He obtained a master’s degree in teaching from UNC in 2001. For the next four years he taught history and served as an assistant football and baseball coach at Northern High School in Durham, North Carolina.

In May, 2008 James was graduated cum laude from the Norman Wiggins School of Law at Campbell University, where he held the Franklin T. Dupree and Elizabeth Wells Dupree Memorial Scholarship. While at Campbell he served as Comments Editor of the Campbell Law Review and participated in both national and international moot court competitions.

In addition to beginning his career as a lawyer, James also embarked recently on another new role – as a parent. His and his wife Kristi’s son Wren was born June 11, 2008. For the foreseeable future he will be devoting most of his time to his new law practice and his new baby; he hopes one day to return to his hobbies of reading history, cheering on UNC’s sports teams, and watching major league baseball.
