Caught enjoying the important things: good friends and French wine.

We kicked off the Semiquincentennial with Vive La Liberté: America's 250th Birthday Soirée at Mount Vernon, celebrating the Franco-American alliance. We were honored to host Denis Chazelle of @FACCWDC, Chuck Schwam of @LafayetteFriend, and even the Marquis de Lafayette himself!

Matt previously worked with ABC News London, where he researched and drafted stories, developing a complex understanding of messaging and its audience. That experience, combined with a B.A. in International Relations from Tulane University, gives him a command of political media.
