Matt grew up a mere fifteen minutes from the Shawnee on his family farm located between Worthington and Coal City Indiana. After attending Owen Valley and White River Valley High schools he went on to obtain his B.S. and M.A. in Theatre from Indiana State University. Matthew also worked for six years as an actor, technician and director for SummerStage in Terre Haute (now known as the Crossroads Repertory Theatre Company). Some of the theatres he has worked with include The Indiana Repertory Theatre, Theatre on the Square, The Phoenix Theatre, The New Ground Theatre and The Showboat Becky Thatcher. After moving to Indianapolis, Matthew was named one of the Top Thirty Artists Under Thirty by Nuvo Newsweekly (2006). Matt is currently attending California State University-Long Beach to obtain his MFA/MBA in Theatre Management.
