Matthew has always loved working with his hands. As a New Jersey native he grew up working with local landscaping companies and garden nurseries in his hometown. While earning a Bachelor of Science in Landscape Architecture from Rutgers University he took an interest in design build and sustainability related projects. It was here that he first acquired the practical understanding of managing a project through all its phases, from concept through completion. Matthew also completed a successful internship at Walt Disney World in Orlando Florida. Here he worked as a Professional Horticulturist learning how to maintain and deliver pristine landscapes at the world class resort destination. Prior to joining Blondie’s exterior team, Matthew worked with site construction and landscaping contractor companies as a project engineer. It was here in NYC, doing construction documents and project estimating, that he discovered his passion for working on the city’s rooftops.
