Bio
Michael Pinkstaff
It is rare that you come across someone as talented and intuitive as Matthew. I have had the pleasure of working alongside him for 5 years during my time at Athens Y Camp rising through multiple promotions with him. I have witnessed his ability to motivate, lead, and deliver day in and day out. Matthew's insatiable appetite for success doesn't go unnoticed and makes an asset to any organization. More than that, his quick wit and genuine nature makes a truly world-class colleague.

I was honored with the opportunity to manage Mr. Atwood as an intern and highly recommend him for any position in which he is qualified. He brought a refreshing can do attitude and a desire to learn about his role as well as the industry in which he was working. He is a true example of an Eagle Scout: problem solver, hard worker, professionalism, kindness, manners, and works well with all those around him. He is extremely bright, a fast learner and always locates a way to add value to his role. I look forward to seeing wonderful accomplishments in his future.

May 2010 - Jun 2017
I serve as a Supervisor at Athens Y Camp for Boys. This camp has promoted Christian values as well as leadership skills since 1898. I am fortunate enough to have attended since 2004 and strive to aid in the promotion of value in each and every member of our younger generation that attends. I look at my camp experiences as an asset that many were not fortunate enough to be apart of. I serve as a Supervisor at Athens Y Camp for Boys.
