Leadership

Matt’s career spans leadership roles across multiple professional services firms, most recently as a co-founder of Galen/Atlantica. His perspective is shaped by his experiences in public health from the Peace Corps, passion for good policy from Harvard’s Kennedy School, and belief that the private sector is best positioned to develop life-saving medicines. Matt continues to lead (and love) client work, and has been privileged to guide over 100 projects over the past two decades.
