Bobby Pearson is a web programmer for The Ivy Group in Charlottesville, Virginia. He began his professional life as a .NET application developer for his alma mater, the University of Virginia, and pivoted into open-source web technologies for a more dynamic and varied work experience. Bobby has been the lead programmer on dozens of websites and loves it when a plan comes together. Valid HTML, clever JavaScript, clean CSS, and neatly refactored PHP give him a cosmic sense of satisfaction.

Bobby lives with his wife Audrey and their two children Luke and Lydia just down the street from Thomas Jefferson’s Monticello. In season, he brings the fury as a linebacker on the Blue Ridge Church of Christ flag football team. Out of season, he makes a mean spicy chili.
