I'm Matt,
A writer and scientist, looking to bleed fiction into science, science into storytelling, and question the distinction between those two worlds.
Colorado native. Post doctoral fellow (Einstein Foundation) at the TU Berlin. Author of a couple novels and a gaggle of short stories. When not at the desk or in the lab, passionate about rock climbing, mountaineering, cycling, and generally planting myself outdoors and under open skies.

about me
Updates
If you could gaze at your life from a bird's eye view, could you predict what you would do next? This instant? Ten minutes from now? How about next month? How well could you predict the choices which you make, the reactions you would exhibit, the emotions which drive you?
​
Are we built from the inside out or from the outside in - do our memories drive our actions or do we react from deep seeded instinct?
​
These questions are often at the heart of my writing.
