About Me
Cyberhillbilly is the nom de guerre of Johnathan Gay. Gay works in the field of technology based economic development. As such, he tries to build an entrepreneurial, innovation-based economy in Appalachian KY. Gay is a 99 graduate of EKU and a 2002 graduate of the UK College Of Law. Johnathan was raised in Leslie County deep in heart of the “old economy" in the the Appalachian Mountains on a small tobacco farm. His late father was a disabled coal miner and a union member and his mother is a teacher in McCreary County. His grandfathers were factory-working, union men who managed to raise families in Appalachia while traveling up and down U.S. 27 and 25 to work in Ohio factories. Gay previously practiced law in London, KY. The opinions expressed here are Johnathan's and do not necessarily reflect those Johnathan's employers.
