Matt's Story
Life
Twenty years since high school. What have I been up to? Well it took me ten years from start to finish to get my college degree. Whew - glad to get that thing done. I've been married for almost twelve years. I took my first job in public relations in Palo Alto, Calif. and ended up staying in the Bay Area for five years. Shortly after having our daughter (Marina) in 2000 the itch to return to Minn. grew, especially for my wife (Mona). I finally got the hint in 2003 and we packed our bags for Minn. In 2005, our second child was born Micah. He keeps us hopping.
More recently, my career has broaden...Expand for more
ed from public relations to marketing communications and advertising. I took my first in-house communications job 1.5 years ago for a small software company selling meter data management software to the utility industry. It's a good place to be considering the economy.
I also started a part-time gig (three years ago) as a firefighter and emergency medical technician for Brooklyn Park.
For slightly more than minimum wage, I run into burning buildings and think it's fun. The best part of the job are the medical calls. Helping people when their sick or injured is one of the most rewarding things I do.
