Rusty Gates
Chief Marketing Officer, Networking Out LLC
Owner, Rusty Gates Media
Rusty Gates is an entrepreneur who made a shift from the non-profit sector and executive search to real estate in 2018.

Rusty joined this networking organization to help create a more relaxed, people-focused space where relationships come first. He’s passionate about breaking away from traditional, formal networking models and fostering genuine connections built on trust—especially within the health and wellness community.
