Matthew has demonstrated his ability to successfully implement new metallic materials and processes in production environments through his unique combination of technical expertise, qualification/certification knowledge, and ability to develop new suppliers. This expertise has been cultivated over a 20+ year career developing new metallic technologies for military, space, and commercial aerospace platforms with multiple companies. Matthew's involvement with metallic AM began in 2001 when working in Lockheed Martin Skunk Works on laser powder-based titanium Directed Energy Deposition (DED) processes under the Metals Affordability Initiative. In Matthew's latest position as an Associate Technical Fellow on the Boeing Commercial Airplanes Product Development team, he led the development of titanium wire-DED processes. In 2017, he led qualification of the first additively manufactured structural titanium parts for commercial aircraft which was recognized by an Aviation Weekly Laureates Award. Matthew has a B.S. in Metallurgical & Materials Engineering from the Colorado School of Mines and a M.E. in Engineering Management from the University of Colorado Boulder. He is also a member of the MMPDS Committee for metallic allowables.
