Matt was born and raised in Rochester, NY, and graduated from Wheatland-Chili High School. After high school, Matt attended SUNY Geneseo, where he graduated with degrees in History and Political Science. During his junior year at Geneseo, Matt ran for and was elected to the Village of Geneseo Board of Trustees, serving two years as a Trustee and 2 years as the Deputy Mayor of Geneseo. It was during this time that Matt discovered his love for local government, civic engagement, and using his position to positively impact others and his community. Though becoming a lawyer was always his career goal, Matt declined that career option and instead joined the Be Your Own Hero Board of Directors in July 2020. After the first wave of the pandemic, Matt was asked to step in as the Interim Director of Be Your Own Hero in September 2020. He was voted in as Be Your Own Hero’s Executive Director in June 2022.
