Matthew believes in the power of community building through the shared exploration of cultural history. Through his experiences working as a heritage professional, he has seen the magic that can occur when people are encouraged to make meaningful connections with artifacts and archives. Working at the Museum since 2011, Matthew was the project lead on the award-winning Time Travel Sunshine Coast project, and has worked intensively with community members in the co-curation of exhibits, interpretive content, and educational programs. Matthew holds a Bachelor of Arts from the University of Guelph and a diploma in Cultural Resource Management from the University of Victoria. When not at the Museum, you will find him in the Coast Mountains, or swimming at Secret Beach.

Kaylin has been with the museum seasonally since 2019 as she works to complete her Bachelor of Motion Picture Arts degree at Capilano University. She has been inspired by the art of storytelling since she can remember, and is grateful to have the opportunity to bring this passion to the museum and the preservation of community stories. Born and raised on the Sunshine Coast, Kaylin has loved being able to gain new perspectives on the foundations of places she’s known her entire life, and to be able to share this with visitors. During her spare time, Kaylin enjoys working on video projects, crocheting, and occasionally attempting to mountain bike.
