Matthew is an empathetic engineer who puts all his energy - which is a lot - into his work! I had the pleasure of working with him on two projects. Matthew’s ability to work seamlessly in any team, to pick up new tech quickly, and then explain what and how his code was working made him a standout on both projects. I miss his sense of humor and contagious enthusiasm! Matthew is the type of engineer who elevates the people around him, and he will be an asset at any company.
