Bio
Meredith Burkhart
"Enthusiastic self-starter comes to mind when I think about Matthew. I had the pleasure of working with Matthew and seeing him grow in his career for four years at Textron Specialized Vehicles. Matthew started in a Sales Development role working for me for with TSV’s consumer brands and very quickly was promoted to Territory Sales Manager. It is no surprise that Matthew quickly obtained his own territory, as I was particularly impressed by his ability to effortlessly manage continuous change, build relationships, and always get the job done. Matthew goes beyond what is expected and understands that the role he plays as a team member or leader goes beyond just a job description. Matthew would be a great asset to any team.
