James Bies attends Kingman High School and is a leader in Future Business Leaders of America club at KHS. James has drawn so much from his journey in FBLA. In 2024, his club created the Kingman Little Library as a community service project aimed at the Kingman Middle School students. In 2025, his team along with LWHS were apart of the bus accident on their way to Phoenix. James rose to the need of his group and fundraised to help the families with the financial burdens of getting to and from the hospitals, and raised over $700. James is truly inspiring and is taking the opportunities to help students become engaged in FBLA. His club has helped him grow confidence in his communication (and public speaking), leadership and service in the community. He was accepted to Grand Canyon University to study finance with the dream to become a CFO one day. In addition James plays golf. He said his worst score was a 110, and his best was in the 30's on 9. He also in the school mascot for KHS.
Thanks for sharing about your accomplishments and goals with us James.
