Matt has over 28 years of professional engineering experience, working six years in Boulder, Colorado before joining the Missoula office in 1999. A builder and tinkerer by nature, Matt's considered one of the firm's "Big Building Specialists," tackling large commercial projects like bridges, municipal buildings, schools and factories. He earned his BS in Civil Engineering from the University of Colorado and has served as president of the Structural Engineers Association of Montana. He also spends as much time as he can working with community organizations like Habitat for Humanity where he serves as a board member for the Missoula organization. Strapping on the framing bags for a build day is one of his favorite hobbies. With his better half, Matt is in the throes of getting three children through college and their early adult lives, enjoying the company of Mando and Sage, a golden labradoodle and black lab (respectively) that run the household.
