Both Matt and Mallory quit their jobs and moved from Omaha in 2021 to Ankeny for Matt to start The HomeLife Brothers with Ryan. They have one son Dean and two dogs Opie and Scout which means they are a busy family!!! Matt graduated with a BA in Finance from Wayne State College, spent several years in the banking industry before leaving the office for the construction industry. Matt's passion in the business is taking an idea and building it into something he can be proud of.
