After high school, he went on to continue his education at Gannon University in Erie, Pennsylvania, where he studied pre-pharmacy.

In college, he was the President of his fraternity, Pi Kappa Alpha. He had so many good memories with his brothers in Pi Kappa Alpha, and the charity work that they were able to perform in their local community. Matthew then attended Idaho State University and graduated in the top 5% of class as a Doctor of Pharmacy.

While he was attending Pharmacy School he had an internship in Alaska, where he fell in love with the beautiful outdoors of Alaska.
