Early years

James was raised by his maternal grandparents.[4] Brad spent four years as a U.S. Marine serving in combat units. Although Brad is known for being athletic and performing his own stunts in films; Brad is working with an ankle that never healed correctly after he broke it in late 2000 while serving in the US Marine Corps. During his time, he studied the hand to hand combat, line-training and Brazilian ju-jitsu.

Career

James has appeared in many commercials for national brands including Walmart, AutoTrader.com and BlackBerry.[3] In his first credited speaking role on-screen, he played the lead role of John Merser in Maverick Entertainment's Champion Road. In 2013, James won the Georgia’s "Best Actor" award at the Georgia Entertainment Gala.[3] In 2013, he was cast to portray the role of Adam in the movie Marry Me for Christmas.[5][6]

Personal life
