James, who appears as pampered teenager Nicole Franklin, told the Sunday Herald Sun that she is planning on working on more feature films before launching a career overseas.
"Working on a series like this [Home and Away] is the best training you can get," said James. "I look at it like an apprenticeship and never forget how lucky I am."
James, whose film credits include the short feature Hugo, previously guest starred on Neighbours as Anne Baxter, the visually impaired biological daughter of Janelle Timmins (Nell Feeney).
