Director

Admissions

A student is showing off their work at spring show 2024.

BA in Business Administration, Baldwin-Wallace College; M.Ed., Vandercook College

James earned his Bachelor of Arts in Business Administration from Baldwin Wallace University. He also earned a Master of Education from Vandercook College in Chicago, IL. Originally born in Manhattan NY, he barely remembers this time in his life, and truly is a Clevelander—raised on the West side and an alum of St. Edward High School. Sadly, he is not related to the Malley family famous for nutty chocolaty goodness.

James has some experience under his belt. Ranging from computer programming to teaching high school band, he is a creative thinker and clearly flexible. His most relevant experience is 14 years of Admission leadership at schools such as Delta College of Arts, Remington College, and St. Mary’s College.

James enjoys classical music and cross stitch and is dad to three fur babies: Lola Bell, Niko, and Bella Rose.
