In this alumni spotlight, we highlight James Merrill, a two-time graduate of WVU. He reflects on a path shaped by hard work, service, and a commitment to creating a better future for himself and his community.

After overcoming significant challenges throughout his life and earning the rank of Sergeant in the Marine Corps, James completed his Regents Bachelor of Arts, R.B.A. degree while serving the West Virginia State Police force, balancing the responsibilities of work, family, and community involvement.

He took his two degrees and years of experience across many areas to start his own company, Hasten Services LLC, in 2020.

His story is a reminder that it is never too late to pursue your goals and that education can create opportunities that extend far beyond the classroom.

As James shares, "Education opens doors that otherwise might never be available. You take one class at a time, one degree at a time, one contract at a time. Eventually you look back and realize how far you’ve come."
