Product Designer + Photographer

A multidisciplinary creative who brings an innovative and fresh approach to the table.

With nine years of product design experience working at Street Contxt, Soapbox, and BioRender, Matthew has gained an immense understanding of the importance of user experience through design thinking, and human-centred design practices. 

Using an approach that has often been described as absolute, Matthew has a knack for focusing on the minute details, and is constantly working towards perfecting his craft. His ultimate goal is to harness creativity, and to solve design problems with clean, intuitive, and effective design solutions. 

Matthew recently spent a full year traveling across Europe and Asia - from the cobble stones in Rome, to the crowded crosswalks in Tokyo, to the ancient towns in Vietnam, with ambitions to expand his photography. With an unlimited supply of history, beauty, and culture, he set out to gain perspective through his time overseas.

Back home now in Toronto, Matthew is a product designer at BioRender, and his photography varies from weddings, lifestyle, and fashion. He’s had the opportunity to work with various brands such as Lululemon, Maison Bedard, Overwerk, Amanda Maria Fashion, Gelbsy, and many others. Matthew has gained a reputation for being dynamic, versatile, and driven when faced with challenging projects. 

When not editing in Adobe Lightroom, or reading up on the newest trends in design, you can find Matthew out socializing, extending both his social and professional networks - usually in toe with his favourite pint of craft beer.
