Matt holds a Bachelor of Arts degree in Film and has several years of experience in the commercial industry. However, his passion for education led him down a different path, and he began his teaching career in 2014. As a high school teacher, Matt taught video production, broadcasting, and art, inspiring students with his knowledge and enthusiasm. Always looking for ways to grow and contribute more to the field of education, Matt pursued additional training to become a site supervisor for child development centers. This role allowed him to gain valuable insights into managing and overseeing the operations of educational facilities. In 2021, amidst the global pandemic, Matt demonstrated his resilience and entrepreneurial spirit by successfully opening and operating two child development centers.
