recommendations Matt took the lead role in the analysis and redesign of our plan sponsor and

participant web applications. Navigating a complex and sensitive enterprise level

initiative, Matt was able to effectively bridge communication between technology

and the business, bring transparency to the process and gain the support of senior

management in a difficult environment.

Matt provided tremendous insight to the organization in terms of design,

interactive marketing and business process. Matt was a pleasure to have as part of the

team and I would strongly recommend him to any organization.

Tim Fahey, Director Segment Marketing, Clark Consulting

Matt worked with our editorial team to build two of the most effective employee

communication channels I ve ever seen. Kurt s Corner and The Watercooler were

built from scratch on a tight deadline and succeeded because of Matt s ability to fit

content and design together in a seamless package that attracted and engaged the

audience. The communications captured the essence of our president s personality

and the culture of the company.

Matt is smart, focused and understands the needs of all stakeholders. He works

well under pressure and budget constraints. He knows the importance of process,

when to be flexible and when to take a stand. His gift is the ability to integrate all of

these factors while improving and enhancing the original concept.

I can recommend him highly as someone who works intuitively and skillfully with

content providers, copywriters and editors.

Robert R. Frump, Editorial Director, Clark Consulting

[Matt] helped create an improved framework which helped solidify better coding

practices across the content sites, thus improving multiple facets of the enterprise

development process. Matt s largest contribution came from his effective visual

designs which included flash header designs, internal forms, and user experience

suggestions. Users provided immediate positive response to the design changes. His

diligence on providing clear comps for initial designs assisted in communication

throughout the projects he worked on with our groups.
