Jay Barry

Jay has been working on the web for more than 8 years. A designer at heart, by necessity and desire, he has had the opportunity to work on many projects large and small, on the front end and the back end, resulting in a cyborg-like amalgam that is part-developer, part-designer. Perhaps this explains why his business card say “Creative Director”, but in reality he spends most of his time buried in html, css and php.

In his “spare” time, Jay plays in a band for children called Lunch Money, with his wife Molly.
