Presenter Information: 

Matthew was born into an “artsy” family. His father was a musician with a Ph.D. in music, and his mother is a dance instructor. So the arts were very influential during his upbringing.

Since then, he’s become and accomplished musician playing a variety of instruments, including Bass Guitar and Theremin. He works as an independent product specialist for Steinberg, Yamaha, and Tascam. He’s also deeply involved in professional video and photography. But his love of music keeps him busy with teaching, mixing and mastering.
