Matt thrives on great conversation and thoughtful questions. He’s genuinely interested in what makes people tick, believing that understanding you is more important than just understanding your money. His financial plans are tailored to support your goals, your family, and the life you want to live.

With over 20 years of experience in money management, client care, and real-world retirement planning, Matt knows what works. He’s passionate about strategies and products that perform, through every market cycle and life stage.

Outside the office, Matt’s a proud dad who’s living proof that kids are six times more likely to get injured under their father’s watch. When he’s not leading questionable adventures his wife wouldn’t approve of, you’ll find him singing and dancing to Taylor Swift with his three daughters (enthusiastically and off-key).

These days, Matt’s back goes out more than he does - but he’s still a familiar face around the Surf Coast. Whether he’s trail running, cheering on after-school sports, or cloud-gazing (he’s a cumulus kid at heart), he’s always soaking up the community vibe.

Contribution and connection are core values in Matt’s household. Raised by parents who led by example, he and his wife now carry the torch as tireless community coordinators. Between charity chair duties, sausage sizzles, and social events, it’s a mystery how he still finds time to stack the dishwasher—albeit the wrong way.

Matt is also proudly a Life Member of University Blues Football Club.
