Matthew Clarke - Profile

Born and raised in Northern California, Matthew Clarke is the product of summer campouts on the Sierras, briskly sunny Christmas mornings and impromptu bayside adventures.

Having earned his bachelor's degree in Communications from Brigham Young University, he wrote promotional- and media-relations material for the publishing, transportation & healthcare industries in his early career. He has also written several news stories for the Daily Universe, a collegiate daily newspaper printed by his alma mater.

Enticed by the seasonal charms of the Beehive State, – from frigid, white winters to sunburned desert summers – Matthew has presently settled in Utah where he holds a client-relations position for a multinational commercial bank.

When he's not at the bank or glued to his writing desk, Matthew enjoys spending time with his family; either in the great outdoors, or on the open road.
