Matt Stuart is a Founder and Executive Chariman at Sellfire. He possess expertise in start ups, entrepreneurship, strategic partnerships, saas, online advertising and 10 more skills. Colleagues describe him as "I've known Matt for well over a decade since we were students at USC and former colleagues at Colony Capital. Over this time, through his countless displays of intelligence and acts of friendship, Matt has become one of the most influential people I know. In fact, when my wife and I were married in 2012, our reading during the ceremony was based on the principles of trust, honesty, loyalty and integrity. Matt was the obvious choice to deliver this passage, as he is one of the few that have earned such a level of unconditional friendship. While at Colony, many of the junior staff gravitated towards Matt, as he has a special way of packaging complex ideas into simple thoughts that everyone can digest. He led by example and was consistently the first to show up and last to leave, helping the larger team go home earlier at night. He wasn't afraid to run through walls for the sake of his team. It was contagious. Matt is certainly one to watch in the coming years, as he is a rare breed that can do it all – he can identify a market opportunity, visualize a long-term strategy, then break it down to the day-by-day. Rest assured, Matt is a proven resource to anyone lucky to have him in their circle." and "I was Matt's analyst mentor (informally, "big buddy") in Goldman Sachs' investment banking program in 2004. We worked closely together and have developed a strong friendship and mutual respect that has lasted 10 years. Matt and I focused primarily on Las Vegas Sands (NYSE: LVS), a casino operator with resorts in Las Vegas, Macau and other emerging gaming markets. At the time, LVS was raising debt financing for the construction of the Palazzo Casino Resort, securing debt and equity capital for its expansion into Macau and preparing for its IPO. Needless to say, it was a busy time! Matt showed himself to be exceptionally capable in his core analytical role, including financial modeling and analyses related to the debt and equity raises. He also was reliable - our team knew he would simply get things done, no excuses. With so much going on at LVS, this was critical. We regularly revamped our model to reflect changing market conditions and LVS strategic decisions. What I remember most about Matt is that we all wanted him on "our team." He was the rare analyst who made working more enjoyable for his team members AND was extremely good at his job. I have told Matt before and continue to say that I would be privileged to work with him again in any capacity."
