Jay has significant experience in the industries of digital media distribution, digital content publishing, digital marketing and advertising, e-commerce, online banking and payments, and AI/personal assistants, with equal experience representing vendors and customers.  

Jay spent close to a decade supporting Comcast’s interactive media properties. In 2008, he was one of three attorneys embedded within Comcast Interactive Media, a subsidiary dedicated to developing and executing Comcast’s interactive media strategy. There, he leveraged his technical background to help him manage the vast array of issues faced by digital startups.  In 2012, CIM was absorbed within Comcast Cable, with the goal of diffusing the digital-first culture throughout the organization. As part of Comcast Cable, Jay drew on his experience from CIM to support other business units that were then starting to face digital issues. He often assisted other internal service providers, like corporate communications and government affairs, that needed to understand interactive media and how it affected the more traditional aspects of Comcast’s business.

Looking for a new challenge, in 2016 Jay joined the boutique law firm of Baer Crossey McDemus as a partner.  While there, he worked with companies in all stages of lifecycle, from early-stage emerging growth to Fortune 50.  His process-driven mindset helped his clients maximize their return on investing in legal services, through initiatives such as creating form libraries and negotiation playbooks.
