"Matt consistently delivers high quality experiences that push the bar of what we think of as Rippling today, helping the whole of IT evolve. Matt's work has set the bar for how designers should work within IT — this includes bringing in a wealth of systems thinking, a
drive to ruthlessly simplify experiences, and to push the limits of possible while balancing feasibility."
Matt is able to easily articulate his approach to show how his philosophy can be applied in a programmatic way and provide substantial input on what's needed to move projects forward. His use of visuals and storytelling has
brought this to life, and sets an example for other designers."
"Matt's able to come up with creative solutions/designs for even the most challenging problems and is able to often re-shape the problem when
needed. There have been numerous times where we have run into a daunting product use case that we need to satisfy with designs and Matt has been the key element in shaping and often simplifying the product constraints themselves in a way where we are able to maintain an extremely
consistent UX for users."
"Almost to a one, Matt's peers admire and appreciate how generous he is with his time and how willing he is
to help others. I hear over and over again something like, "Matt was really great at helping me do..." or "Matt
was so helpful at teaching me about..." The junior designers relish his expertise and the senior designers appreciate his willingness to step in."
I'm always interested in new opportunities and exciting projects. Whether you have a question or just want to say hi, I'll try my best to get back to you!
