Bio

Matt has served nonprofit organizations since early 2000’s as a web developer, educator, fundraising consultant, marketing consultant, board member and more. Currently, he is Partner and COO at Impress.org who’s mission is “Code for Good”. Impress.org’s flagship product is the number one fundraising tool for WordPress websites: GiveWP.

Matt serves on the board of San Diego Refugee Tutoring, a volunteer driven organization dedicated to serving the rising refugee population of children in San Diego. He also serves on the board of Mid-City Church of the Nazarene who hosts bi-weekly food distributions, and houses dozens of other local NGOs in their facility in City Heights, San Diego.

Matt is a husband, father to four, and lover of all things musical and/or homebrewed. He also loves to talk about the most taboo of topics: Politics and Religion.

WordPress Origin Story

Someone asked me to build a WordPress site in 2011. I said: “Sure”. The rest is history.
