Testimonials

“As a law enforcement officer I am well aware of both the prevalence of online threats and the glaring gap in education that is current and impactful. Matt’s seminars reflect both current best practices in terms of safety and prevention of abduction and exploitation as well as the latest technologies and tactics deployed by online predators. We are thrilled to have him as the online safety facilitator at the Belleville Children’s Safety Village and highly recommend him!”

-Sheri Meeks, Inspector – City of Belleville Police Service

“I worked directly with Matt on the design and delivery of safety seminars in many local schools. Matt designed original materials for a variety of important topics that include; personal and internet safety and cyber bullying. Matt always maintained a positive atmosphere and found a way to make even the most difficult subjects age appropriate by adjusting his terminology and softening his language for younger audiences. His materials reflect the most current best practices for safety and incorporate the latest in technologies including social media platforms, messaging apps and online gaming. I highly recommend Matt to anyone looking for a professional and highly dynamic facilitator for online safety!”

-Constable Maggie Pickett, Quinte West O.P.P.

“Matt has been providing online and personal safety seminars with us at the Trenton Military Family Resource Centre (MFRC) for past three years. He is a popular speaker and his seminars are in high demand due to his engaging personality, first class speaking skills, and complete mastery of the subject matter! He has a firm grasp of the unique needs and sensitivities of the military community and therefore has managed to forge a meaningful connection. Matt has even (on an ongoing basis) provided our staff and members of our community with timely support and advice on sensitive and even potentially dangerous situations. We continue to work with Matt and we cannot emphasize enough how highly we recommend him and his services. Those that do will not be disappointed!”

-Tamara Kleinschmidt, Executive Director – Trenton Military Family Resource Centre
