About Us

Eljhā Consulting was founded by James Harris, a Washington, DC area native and two-time Howard University School of Business graduate.

We work with businesses to develop and implement effective marketing strategies that help them reach their target audience and achieve their business goals.

With over 20 years of experience in marketing and communications, James has worked across industries including health care, consumer packaged goods, government contracting, and athletics.

Now based in Richmond, VA, he previously spent over a decade in Raleigh-Durham and Greensboro, NC, working with leading organizations such as McKesson Medical-Surgical, Cone Health, The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill Health Care System, and Telecommunications Solutions Group. His marketing career began in New York City in 2001, and he spent nearly nine years with Altria Group’s marketing team.

A lifelong learner with a high-energy, adaptable, and data-driven approach, James is passionate about helping businesses—both large and small—gain deeper insights and achieve sustainable growth.

The name Eljhā (pronounced "el Jay") is a tribute to his nephew LJ (Leeam James), who was stillborn. This and other profound life experiences have strengthened his commitment to honoring God, cherishing relationships, and remembering those no longer with us. LJ’s spirit remains a guiding force in everything we do.
