Behind the Scenes
Hi. My name is Jay Gaulard and I’m the founder of and primary contributor to IndustryDev. I’ve been blogging since 2006, when I began my very first blog as an outlet to discuss the trials and tribulations I faced as I went about trying to earn my pilot’s license. Since I’ve got many interests, what began as a “flying” blog quickly morphed into a collection of articles that covered home ownership, landscaping, hiking and so much more. Since that time, I’ve written thousands of posts that cover a wide range of topics.
While writing about my life was fun, I decided to shift gears to produce content on a more professional level. Since I’ve been involved with web design and development, as well as photography, since 2001, I launched IndustryDev as the logical step in that direction. Today, I’m publishing approximately two to three posts per week that rival what some of the best authors on the internet release. It isn’t easy, it’s not fast, but I’m meeting the goals I set forth from the beginning – to cover all bases and to give readers what they want.
About IndustryDev
IndustryDev was launched in early 2015 with the intention of striking up a conversation between beginning, intermediate and advanced web designers and developers. My primary focus is on coding with PHP, JavaScript, CSS and HTML, with an eye toward WordPress development. Another core concentration for me is digital imaging, with an aim to open up and discover what the world of photography and image editing has to offer. Lastly, I discuss such topics as blogging and SEO, with other areas that include the exploration of expert personalities, including interviews, tips and tutorials.

On a More Personal Note
When I’m not writing, I enjoy exploring what the great state of Maine has to offer. Since relocating to this part of the country in 2013, I’ve opened my eyes to beauty and recreation I never thought existed. Whenever possible, I’m hiking, four wheeling around our endless miles of logging roads, foraging for fruit and vegetables or practicing Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu. I’ve included a picture of that last one below.
