Jim Aardema has had an entrepreneurial career in the private sector with an appetite for digging into complex issues and initiatives, including enterprises and projects with massive permitting, political, and public relations elements in major markets. He is a life-long learner, fascinated by the academic and empirical underpinnings of social, business and political strategy and behavior. Early in his career, Aardema developed a disruptive strategy that brought private capital and self-funding initiatives to the environmental cleanup industry, pioneering the first deployment of this strategy resulting in successful, vertically integrated engineering, remedial design, and construction enterprises with contracts exceeding $200 million within a two year period. Aardema pursued work involving the redevelopment of fallow land, addressing issues of environmental justice, contamination, and revitalization, returning properties to productive use.
