Prior to becoming E & V’s Digital Division Director, Matt was the national director of communications for the school readiness initiative Reach Out and Read. In four years, he doubled the number of the non-profit’s media impressions, repositioned its national brand, redesigned its website, and built its highly successful — and highly-engaged — Twitter and Facebook networks. He also developed successful, multi-platform campaigns in partnership with Pampers, Scholastic, Target, and the White House.
Matt spent a decade in political communications as well, serving as press secretary for Congressman Stephen F. Lynch (MA-09) and deputy press secretary for Senator Edward M. Kennedy (D-MA).
Matt earned his undergraduate degree in public policy studies at Duke University. He’s been a finisher in 13 marathons, but will always prefer a morning run with his dog, Lexi. Matt lives in Raleigh with his wife, Sallie, and their two children.
