Matt is a graduate of the Doctor of Physical Therapy program at Duke University.  He is a certified movement coach utilizing the Functional Movement Screen and Assessment.  His work interests are in performance enhancement and durability.  In his current position he works with soldiers in the US Army Airborne Division at Fort Bragg, NC. He is also working with the Army to develop Injury Prevention algorithms that can be utilized in the military setting. In addition, he has also consulted for major league sports teams in the MLB. Matt gravitated toward CrossFit as a physical therapist because of the constantly varied functional movements concept.  He believes that too often the traditional medical model fails to prepare people for the functional movements that they will encounter every day.  Matt competes each year in the CrossFit Open as well as locally held events.
