Born and Raised in South Florida. My Hometown is Coconut Creek, FL. I was raised by 2 entrepreneurs. My mom and dad ran a successful Auto Accessory Company. Called Florida Auto Trim. Eventually my dad went into the Contracting Businesses. My dad has built all the houses we lived in. And we sold many he built. So I basically raised around the Construction projects my whole life. Starting from the Ground to Studs and Final Completion of home. The Smell of new construction materials is a all but familiar thing for me. Eventually I grew up and Found myself at different crossroads trying out different fields. Went into Customer Service, Barista life, Then worked at a Volkswagen Dealership based on my familiarity for cars. Eventually My sister founded a Insurance Business and started helping out Submitting Insurance Inspections of Home in NY. Eventually I decided to leave my Hometown and Move to NY. Where I trained to become a Insurance Inspector and started inspecting homes. Around the same time My sister along with Matt Rivera Founded The Inspection Boys and we got into the home inspector business. I eventually left insurance and got my Home Inspection License along with Mold and Asbestos Certifications. And now Currently I manage and help operate 4 Inspection Boys Locations. 2 in Long Island and 2 in Florida. We cover all of Long Island and the 5 boroughs of NYC.

Gary Carruthers - Family Man, Community Minded and a Business Leader. Funny that I was surprised when others described me in those terms but as I look back that is a very accurate description of me. I started in the insurance business in 1978. Yes, I have been “doing” insurance for over 45 years. In 1986, after working for another company, I partnered with another insurance agent and we formed our own business Marlin Insurance Agency. We have grown to an almost $5,000,000 agency. We currently represent over 30 insurance companies, including Travelers, Merchants, Progressive and Liberty Mutual. In 1988, being an involved dad with my sons and seeing how they enjoyed scouts, I became involved with Cub Scout Pack 294 of Farmingville. I served as Cubmaster from 1988 until 2008. During that time, I also chaired many committees for Suffolk County Council Boy Scouts of America. In 2016 I was asked to come back to Pack 294 and have served as the Committee Chairman since then. I have been with this organization holding several different positions but mainly I have been there for these boys. I am proud that over 15 of the boys I had as Cub Scouts have gone on to become Eagle Scouts. I have been an active member of The Farmingville Hills Chamber of Commerce for 6 years. I currently serve as the Treasurer. Prior to being elected treasurer I was the Chambers first Director assisting the Board. In addition to my official role as Treasurer, I am a mentor to many in the Chamber as I have been a successful businessman for many years. In May of 2008 I helped to start the business network group LeTip of Bohemia with 15 members. I have been on the Board every year and currently serve as the Past-President. I have held the position of President during 2 separate terms in 9 of the Chapter’s 15 years. We have grown to a current membership of 58. We are the 2nd largest LeTip networking group in Suffolk County. I have personally sponsored 41 new members into various chapters and hold a Gold Badge of membership. During the pandemic I led our chapter in virtual and hybrid meetings. We didn’t miss a single meeting. Those meetings have supported our members during an unprecedented economic depression. By keeping LeTip going, members got to share and help each other during this trying time. The members helped me remember why I am involved the way I am. Yes, and even with all of this involvement, I have time to spend with my wonderful family. My mother just turned 92. I am the proud father of four grown children and grandfather of 6 amazing grandchildren.

Gary has 30 years of experience working with international and local businesses including Coca-Cola, Bank of America and Cablevision’s Optimum in the Event Marketing space. In 2017, Marcus Consulting Group was launched to provide marketing and sales expertise to a myriad of companies including Morgan Stanley, Comedy Central and local neighborhood businesses to assist in growing sales and brand recognition. MCG is now working directly with Aflac, a leader in the healthcare benefits sector, helping to provide financial security and health protection to business owners and employees in Long Island and the greater New York area.

Even in the womb, I was exposed to ethical selling to the restaurant industry. My late father co-owned a Food Packaging, Dry Goods, and Janitorial supply business and personally served a healthy book of Nassau County delis and restaurants. When I was able to enter the workforce at the age of sixteen, my father's business had dissolved, and both he and my mother were already employed by Price Paper & Twine. I had enthusiastically accepted a local job at one of my parents' renowned deli customers, where I became further immersed in serving the public and utilizing the disposable food service products I would soon supply to hundreds of Long Island businesses. While pursuing higher education at Adelphi University and Farmingdale State College, I continued working in the restaurant industry. During my final semester at Farmingdale, I began a work-study program at Price Paper where my BS in Communications Science aided in fostering our online presence and the development of new intra-company policies. My combined practical application and knowledge of Price Paper's product line were resources that accelerated my ability to perform. Post-graduating Summa Cum Laude, I was offered and accepted a job in sales (working independently from my parents, who would retire a few years later). I have since been promoted to Sales Manager: I oversee our sales force; consult current and future clients on their food packaging needs; analyze the commodities market; and facilitate all special and custom print orders. I am thankful for the opportunity to assist in leading a retired- military-owned company with a seventy-five-year-old legacy. My attention to detail and fanatical commitment to serve (both my teammates and clients alike) have graciously yielded a constant stream of referrals. Outside of my sales management position, I have been playing, writing, producing, and engineering music for nearly two decades. I am a passionate home cook and devout Christian. My future wife Lauren, and her two children Hunter and Penny, jovially complete my life.

Keith has been creating award-winning designs for over 25 years, working at top agencies in both New York City and Long Island. For close to 10 years of that time, he created and has been growing Rocket Juiced Studio on the side. Over the course of his career, Keith has worked in all aspects of design—from publishing, advertising, packaging and annual report design—and has worked with clients such as Disney, Kellogg’s, NYU Stern, Fordham Law, Whirlpool, and Canon to name a few. However, as Keith progressed through his career, he was finding himself deeper into agency politics and lifestyle and further away from the direct relationship with his clients. Knowing that relationships were more fulfilling than the large agency, jet-setting life, he left that behind and took Rocket Juiced full-time four years ago Keith is a graduate of Suffolk Community College and CW Post. He is now back at Suffolk, just this time as an adjunct professor teaching Graphic Design Theory and design software applications. When he isn't working, you can usually find Keith at an ice hockey rink where he is either playing, coaching, driving all over the North East coast to his son’s travel team games, or keeping everything under control as the referee, now going into his 23rd year as a USA Hockey-certified official. Keith has been married for 20 years and has two very active, athletic, and expensive kids. The whole family are unapologetic Disney nerds and carry a wealth of useless theme park knowledge.

Matthew Schuller, a seasoned advertising and digital marketing professional, founded Boxer Media, established in 2017. With over two decades-long career, Matthew has a rich tapestry of experiences and skills, which he seamlessly merged to create Boxer Media. Initially focusing on social media marketing, Matthew pivoted Boxer Media to primarily offer web design services in response to the COVID-19 pandemic. However, the company’s repertoire of services did not dwindle, as Boxer Media continued to excel in social media marketing, blogging, Facebook Advertising, Google Advertising, and monthly email blasts. Matthew also serves as a marketing consultant for many small and medium-sized businesses in New York and California. Matthew’s dedication led to Boxer Media being recognized as one of Wix’s Top 100 Corporate Partners in early 2022 and once again in 2023. This recognition, which hinges on the quality and quantity of websites created, accorded him a senior-level account representative. With his Legend Partner status, the highest tier in Wix’s 5-level structure, Matthew enjoys priority access to technical support, among other perks. Before establishing Boxer Media, Matthew’s career was a blend of crafting campaigns for major clients such as Blockbuster Video, Denny’s Restaurants, and Burger King, and excelling in the Information Technology domain, where he led a team managing the Directory Services Infrastructure for a global clientele. He was also a Novell Certified Engineer and was twice invited to Novell’s Advanced Technical Training. Matthew’s also implemented a global disaster recovery platform for his Advertising Agency and earned the Certified Business Continuity Professional certification. After 20 years in the ad agency, he ventured into partnering with Deborah Ruby Stone at Stone Media, one of the first full-service social media marketing agencies, before founding Boxer Media. Matthew’s inspirations stem not only from his professional achievements but also from his family. He is happily married to Christine, a freelance Sign Language Interpreter, and is a proud father to William. The heartbeat of Boxer Media is encapsulated in its name, which is a tribute to Marvin, Matthew’s late deaf white Boxer, who holds a special place in his heart as the greatest dog in the world. The legacy continues with Maddi, a deaf Boxer-Pitt, who is a bundle of energy and joy. Through Boxer Media, Matthew Schuller continues transforming the digital landscape for small and medium-sized businesses, driven by a wealth of experience and a heart full of passion.

At first, my college major was art with a focus on photography. Nevertheless, I came to realize the necessity of resetting my objectives after graduation. It was then that I discovered the world of massage therapy. I immediately recognized the artistry inherent in massage, with my clients serving as my canvases on which I could craft stunning works of art. For my other endeavors I am an avid cyclist, runner, and anything that will allow me to be outdoors. I still dabble in my photography and enjoy capturing what most people may not notice. It's an amazing world out there.
