MEET THE FOUNDERS

Rob Reynolds taught high school biology, chemistry, and psychology in the New York public school system. Concurrently, beginning in 2005, Rob invested in multifamily real estate as an owner-operator. In 2010, he co-founded Avesta, a Tampa-based multifamily real estate investment and management company and ended his teaching career in June of 2011 to relocate and focus on real estate full time. He helped grow Avesta to 450 employees and $1.7 billion in real estate assets; he also led the company’s culture, resulting in national recognition as No. 19 in Fortune’s Top 100 Medium Workplaces and regional finalist for E&Y’s international Entrepreneur of the Year in 2017.

In 2018, Rob left Avesta to pursue a deep conviction to launch what has become Cross Boss Media, with its mission “to provide children a genuinely entertaining, secure place to encounter Christ in a way that inspires action.” He is passionate about Christianity and his Catholic faith, rooted in his upbringing and education, and reinforced through faith-centered friendships and a regimented prayer life. Rob was pre-med in college and graduated from Franciscan University of Steubenville in 2004 with a BA in biology and theology, minoring in chemistry. He has a MS in Adolescence Education from Mercy College, and a MS in Instructional Technology. He co-founded the Society of St. Joseph, a men’s Catholic fellowship organization focused on the three pillars of faith formation, works of mercy, and family leadership. Rob is also the past president of the Tampa Bay chapter of Legatus and recipient of the 2022 "Ambassador of the Year" Award for Legatus International. He has been married to his wife, Marya, since 2006, and is a devoted father to six daughters and one son.

Shevin McCullough was the VP of teammate development for Avesta, a Tampa-based multifamily real estate investment and management company. Following a profound spiritual encounter on an airplane during a business trip — he felt that God had called him to be the personality for a Christian children’s show — Shevin left the real estate business to join his longtime friend Rob Reynolds at Cross Boss Media in September of 2018. Shevin is the jack of all trades — writer, lead talent and music producer — for Studio 3:16, a Christian episodic TV series for kids. He is the star and hero of the show, a good-natured yet misguided recording artist whose task is to create and release a song to explain the Sunday Gospel passage through the guidance of friends and humorously providential missteps. 

He has a musical background, having recorded two Christian hip-hop albums, “It’s Time” and “Stories of the Saints,” both in 2020. The Isley Brothers, Stevie Wonder, the Four Tops and the Manhattans are some of his biggest musical influences. Shevin, a Catholic convert, graduated from Franciscan University of Steubenville with a BA in marketing. He has been married to his wife, Shirley, since 2016, and they have one son.
