Hi, I'm Matt. Part writer and part video producer, I am a journalist with a taste for interactive web and a keen interest in science and technology. What does that mean exactly? Well, it means I am a nerd. But I also fully understand both broadcast and digital media and know how to fuse the two together to help usher in the next generation of content creation online. I started in a foreign bureau for one of the world’s largest newspapers, The Tokyo Shimbun. I then founded Around America in 2.0, an interactive video series through which I traveled around the US solely relying on strangers for food, housing and transportation in an effort to explore trust and connectivity online. |

Since that time, I have worked as a video producer for Discovery Channel and a freelance journalist and media consultant. I have also worked on a handful of innovative journalism projects, like AliveInBaghdad.org and TabsOnObama.org. Today, I work as a staff journalist for the BBC News in Washington DC. When I'm not working, I think about science, web technology, traveling, bicycles and dogs, not necessarily in that order. I take that back. Yes, in that order. |
