His work has garnered support from sponsors and investors, further fueling the expansion of Creating Good and upcoming initiatives like Creating Good Kids—a movement to inspire the next generation of changemakers. In 2025, VitalLink named Matt as the Volunteer Changemaker of the year in recognition of his commitment to empowering youth through career exploration, creativity, and hands-on learning.

Whether he’s mentoring startups, advising nonprofits, piloting helicopters, or being a husband and father of five, Matt leads with vision, purpose, and a relentless drive to help others succeed.
