James Murphy
Even at twenty-two James Murphy looks like the neighborhood kid that you'd hire to mow your lawn. And indeed, he's mowed his fair share. He's also wired light switches and power outlets, served coffee at 5 a.m. and swept movie theatres clean after sold-out showings. He has stocked shelves at grocery stores and liqour stores alike. During college he slogged it in his school's "IT Dungeon" while completing his B.A. in English Literature. His ability to find jobs that exist out of context with the rest of his life would explain why he's taking tech-support calls at FableVision and not writing for Rolling Stone.
Before you start to worry, let's assuage some fears: he knows what MS-DOS is. He has had to use a boot disc more than once in his life. He remembers Zip Drives. He does not really understand Binary. He knows that whatever the problem, rebooting will probably fix it.
It is not a far jump from Assumption College Fall semester 2005 to FableVision "Tech Guy" 2009. His freshmen year roommate interned at FableVision and selflessly passed on a job offer to his more skilled (and handsome) friend. If you're thinking that a guy that works with computers and reads books should be much more self-depreciating, you're right. He'll try harder from now on.
When he is not worrying about "The Network" or "The Servers", he can be found roaming around used book stores, drinking a whole manner of caffeinated beverages and making obtuse references to things both real and imagined. He is hard at work thinking about how he can utilize these hobbies within the walls of FableVision.
In his free time he pretends that he is famous.
He is more than happy to talk about all your technical needs.
