Meet the Owner

Matt is the proud owner of Floor Coverings International. He's a lifelong Michigander, married with two sons, and family is at the center of everything he does. Before starting this business, Matt spent twenty years in sales and marketing, and he made the leap into ownership because he wanted to build something he could grow alongside both his community and his family.

Outside of work, Matt is happiest outdoors - fishing, being out on a boat, or just soaking up time in nature. He's a big basketball and football fan, and he loves to cook, especially firing up the grill for some good barbecue. If you join the team, you can expect a leader who's approachable, community-minded, and genuinely invested in the people around him.
