Born in Providence, RI, the son of Larry and Gloria Gemma, I began my career at the age of 10. With my father by my side as my teacher and mentor, I began to learn the plumbing trade when I was in the 4th grade. I attended and graduated cum laude from Suffolk University in 1992 with my BS in Legal Argument/Communications. I continued my law education at Roger Williams University School of Law and graduated in 1998 with my JD. I am currently admitted to practice Law in RI and Federal Court. In 1999, I established the law firm of Gemma Levine and shortly thereafter, my law partner and I established Justice For All, a general practice law firm. I returned to my family owned plumbing company in 1999 as Executive Vice President and CEO. In 2000, I was appointed to the position of President, where I remained until 2008 at which time I established an integrated marketing firm called Mediapeel™. Mediapeel™ specializes in integrated marketing and new media and our product line includes web video magazines and website development, media buying placement, the Mediapeel Real Time Traffic Reporting Center, and other traditional forms of advertising. My team and I have embarked on many journeys including the establishment of the Gloria Gemma Breast Cancer Resource Foundation, a 501(c) 3 non profit breast cancer foundation created in memory of my mom who died from this disease in 2002. In 2006, the FOCUS 500™ Business System was developed first, to establish a comprehensive business system capable of managing growth; second, to develop a systematic approach to measurement which was strategy based; third, to have a system that was user friendly to management and employees at all levels; and fourth, to design a strategic scorecard that was easy to understand with a dashboard that could graphically display results at a moments’ notice.
