Matthew has always lived and breathed music. Growing up in the music and entertainment-filled city of Las Vegas, Matt flourished in guitar starting at the young age of seven. Soon after, he developed a love for choir and live performance, whether with a full ensemble or various rock bands. After high school, Matt studied audio engineering at the Musicians Institute of Hollywood. Music has taken him worldwide, including China, where he was an Italian Gondolier, and Germany, to work as a studio musician. Matthew later landed in Ventura, California where he was the House Musician for a local Improv group playing live shows every weekend. There, he met his wife and mother of his three beautiful children to whom he sings and teaches music. Some of Matt’s hobbies include hosting a podcast/radio show and going on adventures exploring the Pacific Northwest with his family.
