Matt once expressed,
"People would tell me, ‘If you had prosthetic arms, I’d hire you. I’d tell them, ‘Just let me prove I can do this.’ But no one wanted to give me a chance."
He grew up an adult but remained depressed as he couldn't do anything for his family.
That was the time when the woods and countryside were teaming and an idea stroke his mind. He started watching online videos, learned the techniques.

"I’d watch people with arms shoot and I would visualize that I was an able-bodied person. If they were holding the bow with their right arm, I would hold it with my right foot. I just tried to recreate what it would look like if I had arms and it just so happened, that it worked."
It was all because of his hard work that he got a spot on the U.S. Paralympic Archery Team and won a silver at the London Games.
