Matt is from Lethbridge, Alberta and spent his youth building various projects with his Dad and Grandfather, both hobby carpenters and has worked in various aspects of construction. He didn't set out to be involved in the Electrical field - he was attending University for business management, when he had the opportunity to purchase the restaurant he worked at. He jumped at the chance, got a loan and bought it at 21. He may not have finished his degree, but the experience he earned over the next few years was worth it. He moved on from the restaurant after a few years and eventually decided to move to Edmonton and look for something new. He thought he'd fall back on his construction experience for a bit and decided to look for an electrical apprenticeship, he started with Rkay Electrical in 2011, a few months after it was formed and began apprenticing. It didn't take long for Matt's other skills to become invaluable to the company and he quickly moved into the role of Construction Manager and helps run the day-to-day operations of the company. When he's not at work, he's probably at home with his wife, playing board games or video games, reading, writing or randomly making spreadsheets about anything just for the fun of it.
