BIOGRAPHY
Matt and his wife, Carmen, live in Sugar Land, Texas. They have two children, and four grandchildren, and are also part-time babysitters of three rescue dogs and two cats. He is grateful for the privilege of getting away to enjoy photographing landscapes and nature, snowboarding, climbing, surfing, diving, and sailing. But most of all, he is thankful to be part of such a superb family and for being so immensely loved.

In his book, "Magnificent Mansions," Matt writes about hope for seemingly failed and unfulfilled lives. He grew up on the plains of Texas. And his career kept him mainly on the flatlands and drab concrete corridors of Houston. Consequently, he longed for something beyond this dull two-dimensional perspective. But what appeared to him as a mostly aimless and meaningless life was even drearier. Years of praying and waiting for even a hint of direction did not seem to offer relief. So he withdraws to the grand arenas of God’s creation. During his engagements with mountains and oceans, he receives glimpses of the sublime nature of God.

Yet Matt finds the most spectacular views are of the rooms being built in our Father’s house. Something beyond measure moves him. The author is freed from the dim outlook of his existence. After hearing the words of a book from the Scripture and seeing the noblest presence in earthly dwellings, he receives new hope about the room and life Christ makes for him. He wishes that you, too, receive this new hope and a view of that magnificent place and meaningful life He is preparing for you!
