Matt is an author, journalist, and editor whose work covers a wide swath of his interests, including sport science, human-powered adventure and exploration, nutrition, technology, and evolution. His work has appeared in The New Yorker, The Atlantic, The New York Times, National Geographic, and Outside magazine, among others. It has also been chosen for “The Best American Sports Writing” and optioned for film and television projects. Previously, he was a contributing editor at Trail Runner magazine.

Originally from New Hampshire, Matt spent seven years working at Microsoft as a software test engineer and operations lead before leaving the tech world behind to run professionally in 2005. This led to a decade of coaching athletes to run extreme distances and a sports science column in a national magazine.

Now, as a full-time author Matt uses journalism as a vehicle to explore ideas, cultivate knowledge, and (hopefully) bring stories that matter to the masses.
