The Deal: Matt attended Carnegie Mellon University in Pittsburgh, PA, graduating in 1999. He worked in Orange County, CA at a private equity firm before joining a leading DC think tank in 2002. In 2005 Matt realized that he loved his job and got along great with his bosses, yet he still wanted to be his own boss. He figured it was now or never, so he decided to realize a long held dream of his and opened Fantom Comics in November of 2005.
Now Matt enjoys spreading the gospel of quality comics to those never exposed to the medium. Of course, he also loves debating the minutia of fandom with fellow nerds, and quoting esoteric lines from geeky movies and TV with like-minded individuals.
