Did you catch my name?

I am a design, development, and leadership professional with 20+ years in the marketing and advertising industry; and yes, I know how to use both an Oxford comma and a semicolon. I am a proud husband, father, and nerd. I also know a thing or two about web design. Check out my Resumé and Portfolio for proof. The name’s Jason, by the way.

“I worked with Jason at First Web Marketing for almost a year. Before he joined our team, our process for creating websites was tedious. We were still using Dreamweaver and our small team at the time were not able to scale web development to the level we needed. When Jason came onboard, he completely revamped our process and product. He used his expertise to move our web development onto WordPress and created a much more efficient and effective creative and design process. The outcome was that our team was able to produce better work in a shorter amount of time. Clients were constantly impressed with the designs and web solutions Jason provided. Working alongside him was truly a pleasure. Aside from being smart, creative, and a problem-solving machine, Jason is very funny and laid back and I enjoyed the time I got to work with him.”

“I have had the pleasure of working with Jason for over 4 years. As my creative director, he brought more than just his design and industry knowledge to the table. He is the heart of the team as well as the manager, making sure the project is completed effectively by working with everyone as a group and individual. He encourages people to flourish within their respective field and offers support and advice on effective solutions to any issues that may arise. It has been an absolute pleasure to work with him and to learn from him as he helped me navigate the SEO and social media fields I was just stepping into so long ago. On top of that, his web design is out of this world. If you are looking for someone who will not just provide you with design, but become a pillar of your company and team, Jason is the guy for you.”

“I am very pleased to recommend Jason Landry as a supervisor. Jason possesses many admirable qualities. He is warm, funny, professional, and very cooperative with employees. During our initial interview session, we exchanged pertinent questions and answers that allowed us both to understand whether or not the job would be a good fit.
After I was hired, I was happy to find that Jason was professional and attentive to his employees and co-workers needs.
I would recommend Jason to potential employers due to his honesty and compassion. I found that he has a rigorous dedication to detail and wasn’t afraid to support strong standards in the workplace.”
