Matt has over twenty years of experience in multi-disciplinary policy, planning, and management, with focus on environment and natural resources. For the Michigan EGLE (formerly Michigan Office of the Great Lakes), he coordinates activities under the bi-national Great Lakes Water Quality Agreement and federal Great Lakes Restoration Initiative and advances a number of special projects both internal and external to state government. Often, he finds himself serving the role of connector or coordinator, which requires navigating the complex interactions between multiple issues, programs, and siloed organizations. Matt holds a Bachelor of Science (biology) degree from Bucknell University and a Master of Environmental Management (resource ecology) from Duke University.
