Lead Designer
Lead Designer at REACHRIGHT. Combines graphic, video, and web design expertise with a Biblical Studies degree and active pastoral ministry.
Jay Genin brings a rare combination of creative talent and pastoral calling to his role as Lead Designer at REACHRIGHT. With a background spanning graphic design, video production, and web design — plus a degree in Biblical Studies — Jay understands how to create church websites that are both visually stunning and spiritually authentic.
Since 2015, Jay has also served as senior pastor in Madison, Wisconsin, overseeing churches across the Midwest. This dual perspective as both a designer and a pastor means every website, graphic, and brand element he creates is informed by real ministry experience. He knows what a church needs to communicate online because he's lived it.
Jay is married with three kids and a chocolate labrador. When he's not designing beautiful church websites or preaching on Sunday mornings, he's probably chasing the dog around the yard.
