James Chaousis
General Parts and Service Manager
I have been working at WDM since 2016 in several roles that include service, parts, and logistics. My service experience started early when I was a CH-53D Sea Stallion mechanic and aircrewman in the US Marine Corps. After six years of military service, I worked as industrial maintenance mechanic and supervisor for the next six years while I finished my college studies. I spent ten years as an executive public manager for Maine municipal government.
When I am not at work I am with my wife and four daughters. We love boating in Casco Bay and everything else Maine offers a young family.
