Matt is a former course director and arguably founder If this this elective; also he is Maine EMS medical director,  medical director for Portland FD, and the medical director for Baxter State Park.  He helped found a search and rescue team and was likely the most instrumental piece in bringing this elective from the FM department to the EM department.
