Inside Rachael McCrary’s Journey with Gather Labs

Rachael McCrary is an extraordinary woman and the founder and CEO of Gather Labs in Beverly Hills. She is not only vested in the medical tech space but is also a fashion mogul who created “Jewel Toned,” a lingerie fashion brand, as well as the RxBra.
Through the development of the RxBra and her connections in Asia, Rachael started supplying PPE and COVID tests to local doctors and plastic surgeons in Los Angeles. This led to the first fully tested event in Malibu in April of 2020, COVID testing for local businesses, events, production sets, and eventually the creation of Gather Labs. Gather Labs is the very first luxury high-complexity CLIA laboratory in the LA area.
Founded in 2020, Gather Labs provides concierge quality COVID-19 testing for all patients including those who are asymptomatic and want to prove their negative status for work or travel. However, Gather Labs just launched a full-service facility with diagnostic consultation and a private, comfortable environment with an educated staff where questions can be answered safely and privately. It is their belief that COVID testing should not have to be uncomfortable or time-consuming and that any test results should be discovered quickly.

Interview with Zach Dugger

I started a business in 2013 out of my home working with children with autism. Over 8 years, we had grown to 150 employees across 8 counties. We had opened 3 clinic locations and were in the process of opening two more. I was still buying the toilet paper and paper towels for the local center and administrative office. I was doing all of the online purchasing for all locations, integral in payroll, contracts, oversight of HR, billing, and our Chief Clinical Officer (she diid not carry the title at the time, but functioned in that capacity).
I was on my knees often in my office in prayer. COVID had increased administrative demands and I was sharing the responsibility with HR on monitoring this and maintaining compliance. I was our CEO and functioned as the CFO as well. Balls were starting to be dropped and the excellence I pursued was not what I was witnessing. I saw the sails flagging and decided to call in support. I had been courted by another organization for 3 years in regards to a potential acquisition.
They are much bigger and have substantially more resources. Within 4-5 months of getting a quick LOI from them in regards to a potential sale, we had closed the deal and they took over control of the business. I lost a lot of sleep in the process, including one night with zero sleep due to the immediacy and overwhelm of an issue that delayed closing.I  talk about challenges of starting, managing, growing, hiring/firing, keeping everything in balance, keeping employees happy, moving through COVID, or selling the business and shifting, including the post-sale overwhelm when you go from 200mph down to 20mph and your productivity feels like it has gone to pot due to not having the activities as clearly defined as they once were.
My main goal now is to help take the leap to get started and find success in business, as well as the resources needed to do so. I also started a company to raise capital to provide people with the opportunity to invest in larger real estate deals allowing them passive income and better returns. Freedom and success.I am also a franchisee for IMAGE studios and will be opening two locations within the next 12-24 months, have my first Christian fiction novel in process, and love being able to have time with my wife and two children.

Interview with Cybeats COO Justin Leger

Software Bill of Materials: SBOM Studio
Get transparency into your softwares reputation, nature and popularity with cybersecurity insights for the entire product lifecycle using SBOMs.‍Gartner estimates that 70 to 80 percent of modern software incorporates open source libraries (OSS) or components from third-party upstream suppliers into product design. These pre-made constructs increase productivity and shorten development time—but they also carry risk into the final product. Like any software module, these software ingredients can have vulnerabilities that emerge at any time, making the overall software product less secure over time.
Product owners, managers, and security officers have an imperative responsibility to keep track of their software supply chains. Corporations need to leverage technologies to continually improve their secure-by-design processes. Product teams can use SBOMs to identify vulnerabilities early in the process and produce solutions that reduce corporate and customer risk.
At every stage of the software development lifecycle (SDLC), Cybeats can extract the characteristics and attributes from software, even without access to source code, to deliver deep insights into the quality and security of software components.
About Justin:  A results-focused leader with over 10 years of senior management experience in national/international business operations coupled with an MBA and executive roles in the military. Expertise in strategic planning, change/operational/resource management, quality & continuous improvement, communication, consulting and mentorship/training.
