James Robert Lay
PTP New Media
(Pasadena, Texas)

Six years ago, in his sophomore year at San Jacinto College, James Robert founded PTP NEW MEDIA in the bedroom of his parent’s house. He started the company as a way to help pay for school. Studying management information systems, he used his natural creative talent to develop web sites for small local businesses. His company began to grow as he found additional clients through networking.

Since starting, PTP NEW MEDIA has worked with more than 75 clients including 25 credit unions, credit union chapters, and CUSOs. PTP NEW MEDIA has found success in helping credit unions grow relationships with members online through web marketing.

James Robert completed his MBA in 2006 at the University of Houston – Clear Lake and enjoys sharing his passion for web marketing at credit union conferences and chapter meetings. Moving to the other side of the desk, James Robert will begin teaching a marketing class in the fall of 2008 at San Jacinto College.
