The Team
Meet The People Behind The Florida Sports Scene
Matthew Geller
Founder & CEO
I want to introduce myself to SWFL. My name is Matthew Geller and I am the owner and lead writer for The Florida Sports Scene.
I moved to Florida 5 years ago. As an avid sports junky, I immediately felt right at home in this rabid sports environment. I was able to visit different sporting events and I was pleasantly surprised by how enthusiastic this area is about athletics.
As a college graduate who suffered through many, many years of paying off my student debt, I empathized with the parents who often shoulder the load of their children's college tuition. So I went to work and did some networking and from that, The Florida Sports Scene was born.

Max Konovalov
Intern/Photographer
What’s up my name is Max Konovalov, I'm a junior at Lakewood ranch high school.
I moved here from Maryland about 6 years ago and love it in Florida. I played soccer for 5 years but found my passion for photography and chased it. I started my own photography business and decided to go all in.
I have grown my business a lot and have created a bunch of huge opportunities for my self such as taking pics at a MLS game, getting flown out to New Jersey for a tournament, taking pics for a brand Capelli, etc. My goal is to take pictures for CFB or in the NFL.
Jaret Rojas
Writer/Photographer
Jaret is a 2016 graduate of the Connecticut School of Broadcasting and has spent more than a decade covering and analyzing sports throughout the Tampa Bay area, including work with PewterReport.com and other media outlets.
Since diving into the 941 football scene, Jaret has built @RojasTalksTampa on X and @nine41media on Instagram, using his platforms to give local athletes positive, professional exposure and help tell their stories.
But outside of sports, Jaret’s world includes his girlfriend Haley and, of course, their Frenchie, Baker. ❤️🐾
What makes Jaret such a great fit for Florida Sports Scene is his genuine love for the community. He wants to see local athletes succeed, get recognized, and have opportunities they may not have had otherwise.
He lives and breathes sports, but even more importantly, he believes in giving back, and that fits perfectly with what we’re building at Florida Sports Scene.
