Before joining MorningStar, Matt held various positions in private equity, real estate development and consulting, beginning his career with Arthur Andersen and Deloitte. He is a certified public accountant (inactive), and completed undergraduate and graduate studies in accounting and business.

Matt invests time in several non-profit boards, including ACE Scholarships and Denver Institute for Faith and Work. He was selected in 2018 as one of Denver’s “40 under 40” by The Denver Business Journal and as a “Senior Living Leader under 40” by Argentum. He is an active member of the Colorado Chapter of the Young Presidents Organization (YPO) and a graduate of the Leadership Denver program.

Seniors were instrumental in shaping Alexis’ early life as she was raised by Grandparents Gail and David, with great influence from Great-grandmother Dolly. Says Alexis, “They were tremendous examples of what it means to have a servant’s heart, put others first, and believe that anything worth doing is worth doing at 150%. A retired police captain, my granddad demonstrated what hard work, determination, empathy and loyalty looks like in the professional world. From all three of these precious people, I learned to work hard, do good, forgive, and trust in God in all things.”

On joining this team in 2020, she remarks, “The culture of servant-leadership that permeates every level of MorningStar was the primary driver.”

As Manager of Accounting for AIMCO, a Fortune 100 company in the REIT sector, Eric handled the complex accounting for over $2 Billion of dispositions and other transactions such as acquisitions, tenders, mergers and 1031 exchanges. In subsequent years he served as VP of Finance and Accounting for a private equity firm with assets of $400MM in gross value and $50MM in annual revenue. As Senior VP and Controller of a residential mortgage loan servicer, Eric oversaw the accounting and finance departments with a staff of 25. His last position was CFO of SALT Lending, a FinTech company offering innovative blockchain-backed lending solutions and products.

Eric was drawn to MorningStar Senior Living by its alignment in mission and purpose. “MorningStar’s core values echo through its halls, reminding and guiding the team in our joint calling. These principles build and perpetuate a healthy culture that extends far beyond simple profitability measurements.” For Eric, there is pride in being a part of a company that understands the importance of seniors living their years in a community filled with loving care, security, warmth and fun.

He earned a BA in economics at Rutgers University and an MBA at the University of Louisville, and holds an active Colorado CPA license.

“I love MorningStar for its core values and mission. Of the companies I’ve worked with, though many would say they have a mission, MorningStar gives evidence of living it out.” Ashley continues, “The senior living world has changed—is still changing—rapidly. But we have remarkable talent at every level to meet the challenge. MorningStar is at the vanguard of what assisted living will look like going forward, in part through amazing third-party partnerships that fortify our clinical initiatives. The future is exciting for us, and I’m deeply honored to be a part of that future.”
