Matt got his start behind a microphone as a college student talk-show host at 89.3 FM KUGS, Western Washington University, in Bellingham. He spent the rest of the 2000’s as a host, producer, and voice talent at the Cascade Radio Group and Fisher Broadcasting and from 2020-2023, produced and co-hosted Heilman & Haver - The Stage & Screen Podcast with over 70 episodes and interviews, dozens of video segments, and many live appearances around the Pacific Northwest.

Matt recently performed Breaking Into Sunlight by John Cochran with Cedar House Audio Productions for Hachette Audio.

When not behind a mic, Matt enjoys acting and is heavily involved in local community theatre. He made his directorial debut in August 2024 at Bremerton Community Theatre with Earnest Thompson’s one act comedy, The Constituent.
