Matt earned his J.D., magna cum laude, from Mitchell Hamline School of Law. During law school, Matt worked as a certified student attorney in civil litigation and appeals for the largest public law office in Minnesota. He won his first appeal in state court as a first-year law student and worked with supervising attorneys to achieve successful resolutions in a variety of complex federal cases. Following his second year of law school, Matt was a summer judicial extern to the Honorable Judge Lucinda E. Jesson at the Minnesota Court of Appeals. He spent his third year as a law clerk at Larson • King working on professional liability, complex torts, product liability, and business litigation.
Before attending law school, Matt managed a nonprofit mediation program, negotiating settlements in dozens of civil cases in state court. Matt received his undergraduate degree in Political Science from the University of Minnesota and furthered his studies at the graduate level at universities in Norway and Russia.
Outside of his practice, Matt enjoys every minute he spends with his partner, Laura, and their dog, Monty. He grew up camping, hiking, skiing, fishing, and hunting in northern Minnesota, his favorite place to be.
