Founder and Executive Director

James T. Fishback is the founder of Incubate Debate, America’s fastest-growing high school debate league. A former national high school debate champion and volunteer debate coach, he launched Incubate in 2019 as a no-cost alternative to the ideological echo chamber that “traditional” high school debate has become, which he detailed in a widely-acclaimed essay in The Free Press. James is also the co-founder and Chief Investment Officer of Azoria Partners, a global macro investment firm. Prior to Azoria, he served as the Head of Macro at Greenlight Capital, a two-billion-dollar hedge fund led by David M. Einhorn.
