Bio
Peter Arata
Matt is an incredibly passionate and incredibly detail oriented person. He's constantly striving to learn more in order to better himself and become better at his job. He is even keeled and always brings his best every day. Even through hell and high water with rounds of layoffs Matt was always positive and always brought his all to his work. As his manager I felt he was an incredibly strong asset to my team and I highly recommend him.

Matt Kludt is the best environment artist I've worked with at Lake Washington Technical College. He always has a great attitude and is constantly looking to hone his art. He always searches for outside suggestions and critiques and recieves them very well. He's a very easy person to work with and if I get the chance again I'll jump at the opportunity.
