Matthew's Story
I went on from highschool to study science and engineering. After completing my studies and obtaining degrees in that field I changed course and earned an MBA.
I now work in the management consulting industry for Deloitte Consulting LLP as a senior manager in the Strategy and Operations practice. I do most of my work at the client site and have had the opportunity to work and live in a great variety of cities in the United States and around the world. These cities include New York, Washington DC, Atlanta, Chicago, Toronto, Houston, Rochester (NY), Santo Domingo (Dominican Republic), Frankfurt (Germany), Trollhatten (Sweden), Adalaide (Australia), and many others.
In 2005 my wife and I were married on the beach in Maui. My wife loved the road to Hana. I loved sitting on the beach, at the bar, and by the pool with a cool drink in my hand. We both loved snokeling in the clear Hawaiian waters. In 2008 we will return to Hawaii to celebrate our third anniversary.
I am a huge fan of the NFL. Watching the 16-0 Patroits lose to the Giants in the Superbowl is an event I will never forget. My favorite Superbowls were the two that the Denver Broncos won. Although I am a Detroit Lions fan first, like any other fan I want to support a successful team. During my high school days I became a big fan of John Elway and, as a result, the Denver Broncos.

dopted favorite team until the Detroit Lions can field a competitive squad that is not soley dependent on one player (i.e. Barry Sanders).
As those who know me might have guessed I am very interested in economics and politics. I am a passionate supporter of individual liberty as laid out in the United States Constitution and Bill of Rights. I am an arch opponent of the socialistic policies of the Democratic Party. Nothing could be more antithetical to the principles of personal liberty than socialism. I am a student and supporter of liberty loving Americans such as Walter Williams, Thomas Sowell, John Stossel, and Ron Paul.
During my college days I became a member of the Tau Kappa Epsilon (TKE; pronouced teke) fraternity. That experience added an unmeasurable amount of fun and adventure to my time as an undergraduate. As a graduate student I became a devoted player of a game called Ultimate Frisbee. I continued to play it after graduate school until a back injury forced me to stop.
Although I regularly travel for work, Michigan is still my home. Even if you consider our sometimes difficult weather and the challenges of the auto industry there is no place as wonderful as Michigan. I enjoy all four seasons. And there is nothing quite like a Michigan summer.
