associate creative director

Like all self-respecting English majors, Matt graduated from college with no intention of getting a real job.

Instead, he traveled to South Korea, where he taught English to kids for a couple of years. After returning to the states, Matt did time as a waiter and a fundraiser for Citizens Action Coalition before finally landing his first writing gig as an ad copywriter at a small firm in Muncie, Ind.

In the following years, Matt attended graduate school to study digital storytelling at Ball State, wrote lots of music criticism for Popmatters.com and Indianapolismusic.net, and launched his own webzine, Hoosier Logic. In 2005, the Indianapolis Star hired Matt to write for INtake Weekly, where he became a columnist and a blog editor, and was recognized by the Society of Professional Journalism for his long-form writing. Matt stuck around at the Star just long enough to realize the newspaper business was dying a slow, grisly death, and, in 2008, he jumped ship to the advertising business. After spending some time at a couple of local agencies and working for a spell as a freelancer, Matt finally found the perfect fit in Well Done Marketing.

These days, Matt spends nearly all of his free time making a fuss over his new son, Oscar.
