Matt earned his B.A. in English from Whitman College and began his career in outdoor media. He served as an editor for BLISTER, where he authored over 100 articles and hosted a weekly podcast about running. 

Currently a first year student at UC Berkeley’s Graduate School of Journalism, Matt is pursuing the program’s long-form narrative writing track. His interests are varied, but he often finds himself thinking about a little bit of this and a little bit of that.
