A serial entrepreneur, Matt has spent his last twelve years helping to grow Northwest technology startups, both from the product and business sides. In 2003 he co-founded ActiveRain, largest social network for real estate professionals, currently with over 170,000 members. Serving as President and CEO until late 2007, Matt's vision led to ActiveRain's rapid growth and lead to him being named as one of the 100 most influential people in the real estate industry four times.
More recently he launched Timu.com, a social media platform for amateur sports teams, as well as being involved in several other online ventures. Matt holds a Bachelors in computer science from The Evergreen State College.

Future thinker and visionary
"I had the privilege of meeting Matt a few years ago soon after he started another social network, one aimed at the real estate community, called ActiveRain. Matt impressed me as someone with keen insight not only into the industry itself, but into how to bring Realtors together in a collaborative community. His vision paid off, as Active Rain now numbers over 166,000 strong. Now, he's doing it again with BigStartups.
Not only am I impressed with his visionary leadership, but his quiet demeanor as well. Matt never vies to be the center of attention, nor does he need to. His work speaks forward and his reputation precedes him. I'm proud to know him and even prouder to call him my friend."
