Hi, I’m Matty. I’m a freelance editor and producer. From May 2017 to April 2022 I was at NowThis, the number one video news brand on social media where my videos had gotten more than 250 million views.
I’ve interviewed presidential candidates, a Disney heiress, and average people trying to make their communities better.
I’ve written and directed films that have screened in film festivals. And I also have experience in the comedy world as a graduate of the Second City Improv program and a participant in the Reductress satire writing workshop.
