Asked what he sees as his role at SIL LEAD, our Communications Consultant Josh Barkey responds, “I just see my role in SIL LEAD as more The Guy Who Fades Into the Background.” But while Josh never gets in the way of telling SIL LEAD’s story, we felt it important to pull him out of the background for just a moment, so you can catch a glimpse of the man behind the curtain.

“I grew up barefoot in the Amazon jungle, catching and eating piranhas before they could catch and eat me,” says Josh Barkey on his Facebook mini-bio.

Josh is an artist who consults for SIL LEAD. We consider ourselves privileged to have him on our team, not only as the communications professional who maintains our website and does our copywriting, but also as a friend.
