Outside the Office
Matt loves staying active: his favorite vacations are to national parks, and in the past year alone, he’s visited the Badlands, Glacier National Park, and Zion in Utah. At home, you can often find him in the midst of high-energy cross-training, playing volleyball or soccer, or taking a long bike ride around St. Louis. He also enjoys cheering on his favorite sports teams, the Butler Bulldogs and the Mizzou Tigers.
Matt is also a devoted dog person. He especially loves the Boxer breed, and he’s at his happiest taking a long walk with his current Boxer, Sunny Girl.
