Matthew is a conscientious young professional with a positive attitude, strong work ethic and commitment to excellence. I have found him to be optimistic, mature, friendly, giving of his time to help others and diligent in pursuing opportunities to grow professionally. During his time at CCC, he took advantage of career workshops, career fairs, part-time jobs and two internships. Matthew also gave a professional financial investments presentation to seniors in my Career and Life Planning course. He clearly shared knowledge he gained through one of his internships about investments and future financial planning. He also took part in a career services video, where he shared his perspective on the importance and value of internships. (This video will be used in future freshmen seminar classes). Matthew is well respected and liked on CCC’s campus. Anyone who interacts with Matthew will immediately see his professionalism, enthusiasm and high potential. I highly recommend him!

Matthew was a proactive, hard-working, outstanding volunteer income tax preparer during his internship in 2014. Matthew obtained certifications beyond the minimum requirements so that he could assist VITA clients with more complicated tax preparation needs. It has also been noted by a coordinator at a site he worked at that he gets very engaged with the clients in discussing their needs and answering their questions. This type of client service is a great representation of the VITA program and his attitude, professionalism and competence speaks highly of Clearwater Christian College. He has also shown himself to be detail-oriented and works well with other volunteers and interns in the program.
