Find our Sentientist Conversation on the Sentientism YouTube here and here on the Sentientism podcast.

Matt is Press Coordinator and an investigator for Direct Action Everywhere (DxE). As part of his activism he has conducted animal farm investigations, been threatened with prison for rescuing farm animals from abuse and pranked NewsMax and FoxNews by posing as the CEO of Smithfield Foods – exposing to millions of viewers the damage their industry does to non-human animals, human animals and to the planet.

He is non-religious and has a naturalistic worldview. He is vegan and has a sentiocentric moral scope.
