About Matthew
Matthew’s journey is one of resilience, adaptability, and purpose. Raised by a single grandmother, he spent five years learning to care for himself while living with an alcoholic and drug-addicted parent. Despite these early challenges, Matthew made a conscious choice to rise above his circumstances and strive for a better future.
In high school, Matthew aspired to become a nurse, driven by a desire to help others. However, he later discovered a passion for technology, where he saw an opportunity to make an even broader impact. This decision set him on a path of innovation and leadership in technology and marketing, areas where he has amassed over 17 years of experience, including a decade in franchising.
Matthew has worked with former NFL athletes, city and government officials, and has contributed to generating over $15M in revenue. In recognition of his accomplishments, he was named the Rising Micro Entrepreneur of the Year in 2013 by the Entrepreneur Institute of Mid Michigan.
In 2016, Matthew faced a near-death experience at the age of 28, a moment that profoundly changed his perspective on life. This experience reinforced his belief that life’s purpose is to serve and help each other in meaningful ways. Guided by values of integrity, communication, innovation, and humanity, Matthew is committed to creating opportunities that uplift others.
A passionate supporter of equality and inclusivity, Matthew believes in treating everyone with respect and dignity, regardless of differing perspectives. He enjoys cooking for family and friends and is an avid WWE fan. Looking ahead, Matthew hopes to give back financially with no strings attached, helping other businesses fund their dreams and achieve success. His ultimate goal is to inspire a million people to live with purpose by the time he dies.
