Museum Staff
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 climbing in the Coast Mountains, or swimming at Secret Beach.
