James Oneil

James Oneil is proud to work for an organization that has been “Making Life Better” since 1952. His Business Development and Outreach role for Columbia Credit Union allows this lifelong local to work closely with businesses and outreach projects within our community. Growing up in Clark County, James has personally witnessed the necessary progress, strength, and love our community delivers supporting our children, hungry, homeless, and veterans.

James likes to involve himself throughout the community. He is most proud of being the founder of the John McKibbin Legacy Classic that supports multiple organizations year after year. Emceeing events that support local organizations and schools with his “Personal Assistant and Driver” Bart Hansen, is a fun interactive creative way of giving back to the community he loves to live.

Family time with Michelle (spouse), Nicolas (son), and Natalie (daughter) is what James lives for! Watching his kids prosper in life, school, play sports they love, develop into kind influential leaders, preserves a smile on his face! Golf is his hobby of choice, enjoys running, has a dusty bike hanging in the garage, and stays kinda fit. He’s convinced there’s an ongoing conspiracy against the Yankees keeping them from winning World Series Ring No. 28!

James is not a dancer, but claims he’s a natural born athlete and a trend setter, so this shouldn’t be a problem! Dance preparation will include YouTube (how to dance), binge watch 1980’s TV series and movies Fame, Hairspray, and Breakin’! Deniece Williams 'Let's Hear It For The Boy' will be his song of inspiration during training and daily habits up until DWLS 2022! James has been called, “The Kevin Bacon of his generation!” See you on February 26th!
