Our Team

Don has been with The Mattran Group since its inception in 1987. His early career was as a university dean, building internationally recognized programs at the Hartt School of Music, followed by Syracuse University and Montclair State University. His consultancies in the music industry provided the inspiration for entering the executive search business. As a senior executive, he is a consummate visionary and master of strategy. During his tenure at TMG he has completed hundreds of searches for some of the most innovative companies across six continents. There isn’t much that he hasn’t seen over the years, so when Don speaks – sensible people listen.

We can’t reference Don and not mention his penchant for anything that goes fast, cars in particular. Although, at various times throughout the years, he has been a competitive runner, skier and cyclist. These days his passion is his Porsche GT3, and serving as High Performance Driving instructor for Porsche Club of America.
