Matt Gwilliam

After completing a B.A. in History from the University of Massachusetts - Amherst, Matt began pursuing his M.Ed. also from UMass Amherst while teaching full time at an urban high school in Springfield, MA. He is committed to community development through education, and, through his teaching, hopes to show his students that "a sound education is their ticket to a better future." As an undergraduate at UMass Amherst, Matt had the opportunity to study abroad in Oxford, England, and is interested in gaining further international perspectives on education. His dedication to community development, education and travel will make him a great addition to the BECA team.
