Coach Matt began training in 2021. He always wanted to try BJJ and after struggling through the tough time of the pandemic, promised himself he wouldn't put it off any longer after things reopened. 

He finds the physical, mental and spiritual growth he's achieved through BJJ almost unmeasurable and has immense passion for the art. He's deeply committed to the community and garners tremendous satisfaction from seeing his teammates progress and succeed. 

Outside of BJJ, Matt is a talented musician in a metal band and a lover of cats. You'll find Matt coaching the Tuesday morning Open Mat and covering classes as needed.
