Promotional Strategist, 103.7 The Gator
Matt is tenacious in his pursuit for industry experience. In 2018, he was onboarded by his mentors to North Central Florida’s #1 for Country as the promotional strategist. He was charged with planning and executing contests and giveaways as well as coordinating station appearances throughout Alachua, Marion, and Gilchrist counties.
Producer, 98.1 ESPN Gainesville
Eager to learn every facet of the radio industry, Matt started picking up shifts as producer for The Tailgate with Jeff Cordozo and Pat Dooley on weekdays 4-6 P.M. He spent the afternoons screening calls, monitoring audio levels, posting to social, and, if he was lucky, he’d get the chance to join the live conversation.
