Hi, I live in Minneapolis and work at a health startup (here's my professional profile: www.linkedin.com/in/matthewmj). I love to exercise, eat delicious food with friends, and dive deep into conversation.

I've previously participated in the sharing economy as a driver and passenger for Lyft (helped Lyft launch in Minneapolis), as an Airbnb guest, and as a co-creator of a food-sharing community in Minneapolis called Dishcourse.

My career has been broad, spanning finance, retail, manufacturing, health, non-profits, and startups. I love to approach problems in a unique way and draw on my variety of experiences to mentor and coach others in the community.

PS - I'm an ENFP and my twitter and snap are both @matthewmj

音乐、电影和书籍

I like music, movies, and books that connect me with the experiences of others, especially their stories and emotions.

At the moment I have Emily Wells on repeat, especially her new album, Promise.

I love character driven movies and one of my recent favorites is The Revenant.

I really enjoy the book Reclaiming Conversation.

教，学，和分享

I'm an open book. I like to share from my experiences raising a family, starting a non-profit, helping the community, and working at large and small companies to make a difference in the world. And I will soak up all the learning you can throw my way!
