Readers of Lake and Sumter Style continually praise the magazine for its innovative advertising sections, captivating writing, and eye-catching designs and photography. The six men pictured here are a big reason for that. For them, each day represents an opportunity to produce a publication that the community can embrace while learning about the people, places, and happenings in our area. 

Michael Gaulin, Senior Designer
Volkan Ulgen, Art Director
Douglas Tyler, Digital Art Director/photographer

Doug Akers, Tim McRae, and James Combs are the veterans of the company. In fact, they’ve been there since Akers Media Group opened in July 2008. The other three men—Michael Gaulin, Volkan Ulgen, and Douglas Tyler—have played an invaluable role in elevating the magazine’s covers and inside spreads, as well as enhancing the company’s website. 

“I’m very proud to work alongside such a talented group of men,” says James Combs, staff writer. “We work well together and really feed off each other. But beyond that, we all share a passion for creating a top-notch publication.”
