who is matt?

Who?

Some guy named Matt, Matthew, Matti, AquaMan, Crichy, Crichton. Who has a commitment to engaging his (global!) community. Who loves yoga, technology, and percussion. Who’s favorite new recipe is steamed fish. Who is finishing a poetry book. Who has gone from electrical engineering, to AmeriCorps, to YMCA, To Peace Corps. Who has traveled to Zimbabwe and Finland (three times!) Who has been a church small group and sun magazine discussion facilitator. Who thinks this Peace Corps thing will be a cool awesome delicious adventure.

The three words I’m working with right now are movement, service, and inspiration. I try to incorporate these into everything I do. I think Peace Corps will have a lot of service, and inspiration, and maybe I can work in some movement—with some yoga or Frisbee
I believe in the spirit of the young person—I work with kids, teens, and young adults—I hope the spirit never dies. I believe “older people” can have spirit too.
