Rob Lloyd
Rob co-founded Hang Wire based on the idea that a web company should not only offer both creative web design services and reliable hosting solutions, but personable and responsive customer service.

Rob is Hang Wire�s equivalent of a hospitality manager. He makes sure that clients are happy and satisfied (Morning haters beware: He�s astonishingly cheerful even at 6:00 a.m.) and maintains the Bossanova CMS for current Internet browser trends.

Prior to starting Hang Wire, Rob was the Internet director for U.S. Senator Patty Murray�s (D. WA) re-election campaign. He lives in Seattle with his wife and daughter, Jodie and Lucinda, and their dog, Jaggy. He spends his free time playing drums in the rock band Little Pieces. He also enjoys soccer, hiking, and canoeing rivers in the great Northwest.

Rob has a bachelor�s in biology from the University of Illinois, Urbana-Champaign and has been programming since age 9.
