Originally from Dayton, Matt returned to the area after 20 years in Southern California and a successful career in sports. He worked 17 years in a variety of roles with the Anaheim Ducks Hockey Club. He also had previous roles with the Los Angeles Angels, Rancho Cucamonga Quakes and Long Beach Ice Dogs. He joined Baker Boyer in November 2022, initially as Asset Management Associate.
