Matt is, hands-down, one of the best DMs I've had the pleasure of working with over the last few years. His energy and enthusiasm at the table are infectious, he's kind and welcoming, and he rolls with all of the punches that a table can throw at a DM. Matt's games are incredibly fun and memorable.

Matt was a great DM. I had a lot of fun at his table. He provides a good story to play in.

I thought he was really good. We were all beginners and none of us were particularly a take-charge sort but he prompted us well and kept the game moving. Seemed very familiar with D&D and prepared for the game. Would definitely recommend.
