About Barry

Some people know exactly what they want to do by the time they get to college. Others, like our resident history buff, Barry, spend time enjoying the fruits of exploring many diverse paths and digging for gold wherever he goes. After graduating from the College of William and Mary with a degree in history and an apprenticeship as a historical archeologist, Barry spent several years working in Peebles Department Store and several other gigs before navigating his way to finance.

Maybe it was from his time digging in the dirt, but somewhere along his winding path Barry learned to focus on things that he can control, and not burn unnecessary energy on things he can’t. That might be why he’s so successful in his role overseeing Primis’ retail offices and 24/7 customer care center.

If Barry has it his way, he’ll go full circle on life and end up volunteering at a historical site in his retirement. Until then, you might find him traveling to one of this nation’s greatest battle sites or traveling to participate in an archeological dig with his friends and family in tow.
