  • Blinded Review, Managing Director, Performance Review, CEC Entertainment , 2021, [Matt] was brought in to assist a Senior Director in thinking through and building the 3-statement financial model with sensitivities… Within weeks, Matt became the main point person on the model and was routinely asked to present to the client, as his communication style was much better suited to this engagement than was the Senior Director who was initially overseeing his work. Matt's grasp of the model and business plan allowed us to free up the Senior Director for other work… Matt performed as a seasoned restructuring Senior Consultant on this engagement which was highly unexpected as this was his first restructuring deal. He was a quick study and became an essential member of the engagement team.
