About Matthew

Grew up poor in the deep south, and was in the Army on 9/11, stationed overseas in Idar-Oberstein, famous for being the birthplace of Bruce Willis and a former Nazi post.

Met George Bush in the Rose Garden, and helped with coordinations for ceremonies at Arlington cemetery.

From there I went to Afghanistan and spent a year working with the locals, then back to Germany, then to Kuwait, then Iraq where I met Drew Brees, who signed my jersey at Forward Operating Base Warhorse, Diyala Province.

I am a teacher of all things technical, tactical, operational, and more- with experience ranging from Soldiers to Allies.

Served as a Squad Leader, Platoon Sergeant, Platoon Leader, Instructor, Executive Communications Escort, Network Operations Chief, and more.

I flew to Israel on a private plane and walked the streets of Old Jaffa.

I lived in Manhattan for a year in which I saw Puerto Rico almost monthly, and did a year in Korea before settling into Georgia until retirement from the military.

Since then I ran for Congress and lost in spectacular fashion, acted in some community theater, and wrote a screenplay that was ranked on Coverfly’s Red List for a time.

I have a Bachelor of Science Degree in Information Technology Management, and a Master of Science Degree in Organizational Leadership. I have earned six technical certifications, graduated at the top of every military leadership and technical training course I’ve attended, and like the men and women beside whom I served- I have a lot of awards.

I've seen every episode of Star Trek TNG, DS9 and VOY so many times it's sad and I can quote the pre-Endgame MCU like gospel.

I've got so many ideas that they've become a massive trove of randomly-typed documents that stretches into infinity somewhere among the servers of Google.

Ask me questions, I’ll tell you no lies. (mostly)
