My name’s Matthew, but you can call me Matt, Matthematics, or MattyP. I work at the intersection of art, mental health research, and youth engagement. I think at my core, I'm a storyteller. I want to support an interdisciplinary and strengths-based approach to the youth mental health and substance use sector. To build the skills to facilitate this, I’m currently completing a Master of Health Science degree in translational research at the University of Toronto. Also a self-proclaimed silly goose.
