Julien "Jay" Wray

Serving as the President/C.E.O. of LYFE Management Group, a business development, advertising/marketing consulting firm, enabled me to connect with companies/individuals that are leaders in their industry. From management of hi-profile persons, entities and projects to consulting over 200 companies to increase their business sales, advertising/marketing and client relations module offered me the opportunity to make a positive and lasting impression.

Looking forward to working in a capacity where I can offer my expertise in compliance administration, business development or advertising/marketing areas. As a decorated educator and trainer, I have the ability to be a “change agent” which is beneficial to any organization.

I am a proud graduate from the Florida International University [FIU] where I was awarded an academic and music scholarship. As a former educator/administrator for the 4th and 6th Largest School District in the U.S., helped me develop a wide background in leadership, administration and strategic planning. I was voted "Rookie Teacher of the Year" (M-DCPS/ESE '98) & Finalist for Beginning Teacher of the Year" (‘98). I was honored to be inaugurated to the Florida's Speakers Bureau, which enabled me to sharpen my public speaking abilities. Other notable awards are:
