GET IN TOUCH WITH MATT

GET IN TOUCH WITH ME

Matt is 45 at the time of this recording and had symptoms of one degree or another since he was around 10-12 years old. Symptoms were very bad when he was first diagnosed with AS at 27. He was working in a high-stress corporate sales job, drinking too much and taking lots of over-the-counter medication to soothe symptoms. Matt had a lot of difficulty sleeping and started having flares so bad he could barely walk to and from his car.

Matt grew up in a small city of around 10,000 people in rural Minnesota in the US. He was raised in a religious fundamentalist Evangelical household with his four younger sisters. His parents worked working-class jobs and were very active in church. Although he went to college for a couple of years in Wyoming, he didn’t leave his hometown until he graduated from college at 25. He graduated with a bachelor’s degree in Business Management and moved to Minneapolis where he worked in several different corporate positions. He became very disillusioned with the business world so went back to school for Paralegal.

He met his wife around that time and was married and had a son within a few years of dating.

He currently lives in Tumwater Washington and works in the state government as a Public Records Officer.
