Born and raised in Ventura County, Matt attended Conejo Valley public schools and was valedictorian of his Thousand Oaks High School class. He went to UCLA on an academic scholarship (graduating in the top 1% of his class) before earning a master’s degree in public affairs from Princeton and a law degree from NYU.
America is a nation of immigrants. Over the centuries, countless immigrants have come to this land in search of freedom and opportunity. While anti-American politicians keep telling us that the American Dream is dead, new immigrants keep proving them wrong. In Congress, Matt will fight to make sure that everyone in Ventura County has the opportunity to make their American Dream a reality.
