Matt has been a member of the Parks Staff at West Bloomfield Parks since 2005. Even when he was in college, Matt returned each summer as a seasonal maintenance worker until he was hired full-time in 2014. His current job title is Parks Operations II. On a typical day, Matt can be found working at either Marshbank Park, Bloomer Park or Drake Sports Park, maintaining park landscapes or tackling various park improvement projects, and oversees invasive species removal in the parks system. When off-the-clock, Matt is usually spending time with his wife and kids or traveling to either Northern Michigan or England to visit family.
Favorite thing about nature:
Being present.​There is so much happening around us, and sometimes we have to be active in stopping, looking around and seeing all the wonderful things taking place.
