Matt is from Glasgow, Scotland and has been riding since he was 9 years old at his local dryslope (Bearsden Ski Club) and indoor slope (Snow Factor) as well as traveling across Europe with the team to train. Matt has come up through the ranks from GB Junior Team to Elite Junior Team and after a successful 2011/2012 season moved into the senior snowboard team allowing him to travel and train as part of the full team.

Matt has now finished his last year of school and looks to further increase the time he spends training and competing with the team.
