Hegler brings structure and leadership to the CIRCLE program in Los Angeles. He first joined the organization in 2018 when it expanded to L.A., after having served 33 years in prison. While incarcerated, he focused on discipline and protocol, which he believes are a great benefit to the Los Angeles CIRCLE team. He works every day to help other formerly incarcerated individuals find meaning in their lives. Outside of work, James loves old movies and jazz. His favorite movie is The Usual Suspects.
