About Matt

Hi, I'm Matt. I work as a live illustrator.

I create giant sketch notes (graphic recordings) of plenary and workshop sessions as a service for large gatherings. In 2020 I invested my time and energy into working digitally. I've learned that my efforts are even more valued in the live streaming space. See my virtual events page.

I am an electrical engineer by education, an artist by choice, a salesman by necessity, and an illustrator by skill and experience. My career has been eclectic. I've designed handheld computers to count penguins in Antarctica, I've created digitally printed wall mural designs  for hotels across the United States from within a large corporation, I've been silo hunting to sell industrial control systems to plastics manufacturers, I've designed websites, integrated information systems, worked as a SEO centric blogger, and I dabble in recipe videos. I work regularly in the fight against human trafficking.  This wide array of experiences (and, clearly, not knowing what I will be when I grow up) has helped me develop a broad level of knowledge in a variety of industries, sectors, and markets.  Today, however, I Listen.

I listen to conversations on industrial technology, medical devices, trauma, Native American issues, professional organizations, brainstorming events, organizational development, government policy,  healthcare experience, legal organizations, and exciting industries like wire and cable.  I'm always up for a challenge!
