Background

About Matt Whitfield

I’m currently creating digital products that empower people to achieve their goals. I believe in an inclusive approach to design and love it when teams work efficiently together to make awesome stuff. My journey has been wild. From slicing roast beef at Arby's to pay my way through college, to a decade-long acting career, to marketing leadership — I've learned a lot. Top-of-the-list takeaways include the value of teamwork, equity, good humor, hope, and, yes, data-driven strategies. I'm a storyteller at heart, and the key to a good story is a great problem. That's why I consider myself a problem sleuth. Because identifying the right problem is the biggest challenge, both in storytelling and product design. I also drink my coffee black, love running and craft beer. Additionally, I write screenplays in my free time and have a genuine love of learning.
