Just Go Grind

Matt is Managing Director of The Fort. He is a Los Angeles based serial entrepreneur and consultant who has launched over 5 companies. He has been actively involved with The Fort since its inception to ensure that Mammoth’s initiative is executed properly and well resourced enough to deliver long term results. Matt works directly with the mountain leadership, Mammoth COO Mark Brownlie, and Alterra CEO Rusty Gregory, to ensure the vitality of the program. His inside the ropes perspective provides tremendous value to the project as he understands first hand how initiatives like these require space, community, resourcing, entrepreneurship and hustle in order to take shape.
