“My congratulations to Matt, who has served on the board of directors since 2015. He brings a wealth of knowledge and experience to the association,” OCAR 2017 President Craig Borner said.

“Our board of directors demonstrates aptitude, experience and the commitment to provide strong leadership. It is gratifying that Matt took my encouragement to run for these positions, and I look forward to the opportunity of continuing to work with him in the coming year.”

Last year, he chaired the network for the California Association of REALTORS®, helping it earn the distinction of best network in North America.

“My election to president is a natural progression of what the Young Professionals Network does,” Matt said. “The network is like a bridge for young real estate agents. We share ideas on how to get better in our profession. It gives us the opportunity to serve in leadership as a young person, which accelerates us through the board of directors and on to becoming president. My grandfather would have loved it.”
