“I had the pleasure of working with Matt on an ADA upgrade project at an existing football stadium for a University Client. In addition to seating ADA upgrades, the Client wanted to revitalize and revision the game day experience for fans, which included revising and adding table top TV displays at the new loge boxes. This required very careful planning and coordination and Matt definitely delivered what the Client was expecting. Matt made sure all the details were captured and gave equal importance to aesthetics AND practicality (something many architects and interior designers don’t often do). As an electrical engineer, I can say that Matt was one of the easiest people I’ve ever worked with and he will be a great asset to any Architectural team. Aditya S. Paranjape, PE”
