MATT MOISE

PERFORMER

LONG STORY SHORT

I once tried to place a Google advertisement so I could win a vote-based high school award, figuring other teens would only use social media. Did I know anything about ads? Nope. I didn’t even have a business or a credit card! Whether I knew it or not, I was always destined to pave my own unique path. And even better than paving my own path is finding others like me, so we can pave our paths together. Collegiate Empowerment attracted me by teaching me that there really are others like me out there. 

THE REST OF THE STORY

My out-of-the-box mind has always dreamed of being an inventor. With the help of tape, cardboard, and ambition I earned my way into studying Mechanical Engineering at Lafayette College, while I let my inventor side free by dabbling in entrepreneurship. Participating in an accelerator program one summer, I got stumped and needed outside help, so my school recommended I talk to Tony D’Angelo. A 30-minute call naturally became a two-hour conversation and something clicked in my head. I’d found someone like me. I joined Collegiate Empowerment because I want to grow from / teach others who share my ambition. 

The experience I bring to the team comes mostly from my entrepreneurial projects. In 2022, I presented an original product at the Dyer Center Big Idea Pitch, earning the People’s Choice Award. With the hopes of delving into entrepreneurship even more, in the summer of 2023, I participated in the Bergh Summer Accelerator, where I developed this same idea even further, networked, gained mentors, and established my own business, Moise Family Solutions LLC. In my pursuit of self growth and ambitious community, Wealthy Grad (WG) has made me more well rounded with its vibrant people and teaching experiences. As a Collegiate Empowerment representative, I have advertised and helped organize a number of events and look forward to doing much more!

REAL GPA

On top of my ambition, I am a bold and relationship-oriented creative. I use my gifts to invent new ways of making people feel special! Whether through one on one conversations after an event or in large settings, I am intentional about enabling people to become the best version of themselves.

OUTSIDE OF CE

I like to tell people that I am the most mature 5 year old I know. Although I can hold a professional conversation when necessary, I’ll always be entertained by the simple pleasures, like watching classic SpongeBob episodes (from seasons 1-5), playing Mario Kart with my brothers, or drinking strawberry banana smoothies.
