Matt was raised in a military family, with his father in the Air Force and his mother in the Army and Army Reserve. As a result, he lived in many different locations across the country during his youth. He eventually landed in Bellingham in 1994, where he attended Western Washington University and earned his Bachelor’s Degree in Biology. His appreciation for the myriad opportunities to play outside, a passion for the local craft beer scene, and the strong sense of community have kept him in Bellingham.

His work experience encompasses Customer Service, Sales Support, Sales, and Project Management. In his spare time, Matt can most often be found traveling, tinkering on his classic car, or wandering the local trails with his partner Erin and their Great Dane/Grey Hound rescue, Brutus. He also enjoys volunteering for the Max Higbee Center, Recreation Northwest, and other local organizations. Matt is excited to be a part of the WealthMark team and looks forward to exceeding your expectations.
