Hello, I'm Jim Highsmith, your Portsmouth District Manager; I graduated from Christopher Newport University with a BA in Psychology, with a concentration in Early Childhood Development. I have worked in the youth development field for over 15 years and have over 10 years of management experience. I was a member of many youth programs when I was a child, and I know the impact that youth development programs make on a child’s life. I enjoy being a leader who can help make that impact. I am very passionate about youth development, but when I am not serving the youth in our community I enjoy running, hiking, camping, and spending time outside with my wife and two boys.
