MIKE - Key Persons
Having recently joined the team as an intern, Matt is always eager to lend a hand so that he can learn more about the world of digital marketing. He is currently studying Communication, Psychology, and Sociology at Wake Forest University in North Carolina-but Matt grew up in northern Massachusetts and will always consider it home. While he now tends to an ever-growing passion for storytelling through a variety of mediums, creative writing was where Matt first discovered how much he enjoyed it. Applying that love for creative writing, Matt uses a trained eye to revise, edit, proof, and even develop (soon!) our written content. If Matt's not exploring downtown Newburyport or spending time with his cats, he's probably caught up in a good book or television show.
