Matt joins NeSI from a varied career in corporate IT. His first job in New Zealand was directly across the road from NeSI's current Auckland office, building a data warehouse for what was then Clear Communications. Other gigs followed with Telecom and NZ government organisations, before settling in to a 20+ year relationship with McDonald’s Corporation. 

In his spare time he can be found in the Hauraki Gulf, tuning and fixing pianos, or attempting to get a new house build under way.
