At the age of 20 Matt got his real estate license, sold his childhood home for a tidy profit, and has been hooked on real estate investing ever since. On behalf of investors and for his personal portfolio, Matt has acquired and extensively renovated ten properties, forcing significant value through physical improvements and efficient property management. His strategy has been to purchase undervalued properties in desirable neighborhoods and improve them in any way possible, thereby increasing the value of the underlying real estate. Matt brings this same simple but effective approach to larger commercial properties via Driven Capital Partners.

Matt has enjoyed a successful entrepreneurial career spanning the finance, real estate and technology industries. Matt most recently spent 6 years at Facebook where he developed programs to introduce the internet to the poorest countries in the world via Facebook’s Internet.org initiative, developed Facebook’s original Facebook for iOS app and launched a subscription business model for video content creators. Prior to Facebook Matt founded and successfully exited two music technology companies after spending a two year stint as an investment banking analyst. Matt has a B.A. in Economics from the University of California, Davis.
