Matthew Schuller
Owner, Boxer Media Services Corp. — Long Island, NY
I've spent three decades moving between national advertising, enterprise IT, and small-business digital strategy — which mostly means I've learned to enjoy the moment when something broken starts working again.
My brain runs a little differently than most, and I've stopped apologizing for it. ADHD means my desk has four projects open at once and somehow that's how I do my best thinking — I organize in parallel, not in a straight line, and I've built my whole working life around that instead of fighting it.
Outside of work I'm usually listening to Pink Floyd, watching Star Trek or M*A*S*H, chasing down whatever topic has my attention that week, or spending time with my wife Christine and our son William. This site is where all of that overlaps with the work — sometimes directly, sometimes not at all.
— keep the entries honest.
