Matt's journey is a testament to his resilience and adaptability. Born in Germany and raised in Iran during the heart of the revolution, he experienced significant turmoil and chaos. This early life experience shaped his character, preparing him for the challenges that lay ahead. After returning to Germany and eventually moving to the United States, Matt joined the US Navy to pursue his college education. Serving for 12 years, he gained invaluable experience working with the Navy's C-suite, responsible for 390,000 members and a $130 billion annual budget. This period taught him how to sense and respond to any situation, tuning his attention towards achieving results during crises.
However, his relentless drive led to a personal crisis, where unmanaged stress weakened his immune system, resulting in a battle with cancer. As a survivor, Matt learned the importance of work-life balance and living a purposeful, happier life. His experience with overcoming adversity has deepened his understanding of transformation, both mentally and physically.
Today, Matt is passionate about sharing his knowledge and helping others unlock their potential. Whether working with military veterans or corporate executives, his mission is to guide his clients through paradigm shifts that lead to lasting and impactful results.
