Matt's on a Mission

After surviving a neck injury that should have left him paralyzed, Matt spent two decades navigating — and often fighting — a healthcare system that treated symptoms instead of people. That experience fueled his mission to create change. Today, he works to ensure no one faces healthcare challenges alone, building systems that listen, respond, and deliver real results for patients.

My Mission

Why I want patients to get better healthcare

I’ve seen firsthand how the system fails too many — from unnecessary surgeries and missed diagnoses to years of ineffective treatments. My mission is simple: put patients first. That means listening to their stories, advocating for their needs, and ensuring they have a seat at the table in every decision about their care. Better healthcare isn’t just about better medicine — it’s about respect, trust, and collaboration that leads to lasting change.

Resilience & Recovery (2005 – 2020)

After a career-ending lacrosse injury at The Ohio State University left him facing possible paralysis, Matt endured years of misdiagnoses, unnecessary surgeries, and heavy opioid dependence. Those challenges revealed deep flaws in the healthcare system — and sparked his determination to change it.

Patient Advocacy in Action (2021)

Guided by a life-changing encounter with patient advocate Dr. Ali Sharief, Matt discovered the power of slowing down, listening, and addressing root causes. This experience fueled his mission to ensure every patient has a knowledgeable ally to navigate care.

Building Impact Platforms (2022 – Present)

Matt began partnering with nonprofits, coalitions, and life sciences companies to channel resources toward real patient needs. His work focuses on bridging gaps, improving outcomes, and dismantling the barriers that leave too many stuck in the “maze” of healthcare.

Where Matt is Now (2025)

Fully committed to patient-first change, Matt now builds systems where advocates, patients, and providers collaborate from day one. His mission: no one faces healthcare challenges alone, and every voice is heard in decisions that shape care.

The Vision

Matt envisions a healthcare landscape where patients, advocates, and organizations work side by side from day one—building trust, breaking silos, and making outcomes fair, equitable, and truly patient-driven. His goal is to keep driving collaboration that cuts through bureaucracy and actually changes lives.
