Testimonials

What collaborators say.

If I were to make a list of executives in the digital space who embody innovation, quality, and consistent execution, Matt would be at the top. Few people can lead the way he does. He drives teams to deliver exceptional creative work and world-class user experiences while ensuring measurable revenue and KPI growth.

Todd Lilienthal

VP / Digital Innovation, WOW!

Matt was the architect of CP+B’s “no dead ends” integrated philosophy and integral to so many of our successes over the last decade. There are very few people who know more than Matt when it comes to where our industry is headed — and even fewer talented enough to take you there.

Rob Reilly

Global CCO, WPP

Watching Matt review an experience is like watching Jason Bourne scope a room. He sees things in CX that normal people just don’t see. He’s also collaborative, creative, innovative and a genuine leader.

Tom Markham

VP / Creative, Meta

“This was the best, most rewarding project I’ve worked on in 6 years at FBIN. Thanks for the incredible teamwork and collaboration.”

Eric Nebbia

Sr. Director, Digital Experience, Fortune Brands International

“Thank you for the great work you and your team did on our behalf. I learned a great deal about our customers and your insights were relevant to many other aspects of our business beyond just our digital communication strategy and website.”

Beth Cross

Co-founder and CEO, Ariat

“I’d gladly work with Green Stone again. Their customer-first strategic thinking and flexibility helped the team identify, accelerate, and deliver a significant growth opportunity with speed and efficiency.”

Brady Noon

Chief Marketing Officer, Take5

“I just wanted to say how much I enjoyed working with the Green Stone team over the duration of this fast moving project. You did simply amazing work.”

Jason Broughton

Chief Design Officer, LexisNexis

“Matt is a leader that people stay for. He embodies a rare mix of transparency, collaboration, drive, and a deep care for those in his network, far above and beyond the norm. As a result, he’s able to gather around him a cloud of talent that is consistently top tier, and then he does everything he can to allow their talents to shine in smart, focused solutions — a recipe for great work. In every interaction, he brings an incisive intuition for customer experience, business realities, innovation, and impact, which sharpens the work to a fine point. If you’re looking for a leader who can make measurable impact, look no further.”

Eli Bynum

Production Lead

“From business strategy and analytics, to branding and industrial design, Green Stone’s quality has consistently exceeded our expectations over the last few years. We look forward to our continued partnership.”

Chris Lohmann
