Matt Stevens joined Creature Comforts Brewing Co. in September 2017 as its first Director of Strategic Impact, his role was to ensure the business was making meaningful investments in both their employees and their city. His team now leads their two primary community impact programs, Get Comfortable and Brew For One, and they oversee CCBC’s B Corp certification process. He is no stranger to Athens, Georgia, however. A self-described “boomerang,” he has returned to Athens during four chapters of his life, including years as a graduate student at the University of Georgia where he earned his MPA in Nonprofit Management. Prior to a career in craft beer, Stevens worked in both the public and nonprofit sectors, including six years as the Associate Director of UGA’s research station in San Luis, Costa Rica.
