John Radaza
Global Head of Production
Nike USA
“A true team player and brilliant storyteller. His ideas brought a fresh perspective and new life to our work. He caught our blind spots and helped us identify more efficient ways of working. By nature, Matt is collaborative, passionate, and very easy to work with.
But what I love about him the most is that creativity is central to all his work, even operationally focused problems. A producer’s dream.”
Carlo Cavallone
Head of Global Creative, Lego
Former Global CCO, 72andSunny
“Matt's an excellent modern creative because he's first and foremost a great craftsman, with a maniacal attention to detail, but he's also a great, solid businessman who deeply understands the needs of a brand.
On top of this, he's also a really nice person to work with, smart, fun, highly empathetic, and always really calm in the face of adversity.”
Anagha Alreja
Creative Director, APAC, LATAM
Nike USA
“Passion for storytelling, brimming with smart, witty, thoughtful, and fresh ideas, plus always going above and beyond the brief, are just some of the many qualities that make Matt and his crew at OTOH an absolute joy to partner with. They make us look good.”
Nic Owen
Former Managing Director
72andSunny, Amsterdam
“Matt is a legend of 72andSunny Amsterdam - someone who helped build the office. Matt has many skills as a CD, Designer/ Art Director, and human.
Matt has a base layer of strong design chops and conceptual ability that make him a great creative. This also lays the foundation for him to be an excellent Creative Director. He thinks brand first, is open to all kinds of input, but also has the strength of character to protect ideas and keep them whole. This, coupled with Matt being a very decent dude, makes him a great leader.”
Micah Walker
Founder & CCO, Bear Meets Eagle On Fire, Sydney
Former CD, W+K Portland
“I like folks who care, question, and obsess over the details of everything from brief to case study, so I really like Matt.
He's an incredibly decent bloke who's always doing that bit more than is required, long after everyone else has left. There's not a creative department worth working in that wouldn't appreciate having him.”
Justin Drape
Founder, CCO, The Monkeys, Sydney
Founder Exceptional ALIEN
“Matt was our first overseas hire. He arrived when we were just ‘a room full of dudes’ and helped the agency grow from 15 dreamers to over 100 staff. Along the way, he created some of our most awarded work.”
Dave Damman
Former CCO
Carmichael Lynch, Minneapolis
“Extremely nice, and extremely talented. Two very sought-after qualities that are hard to find in our industry – and to find them both in one person – that's Matt.”
