Matthew Frazier
Treasurer
Matthew Frazier has been with Guilds of Requiem, Inc. since the days it was known as "Project Requiem Ranch" in 2016. He has been an active part in the evolution and development since then. Mr. Frazier prefers to work in the background and let others shine in their accomplishments.
Mr. Frazier joined Guilds of Requiem, Inc. with a background as a Master Electrician, a position that frequently needs to use higher mathematic skills to computate electrical loads which he applied to the Treasurers position multiple times.
Matt has been a Master Electrician since 2012. He currently works with a construction company and supervises job site employees. His position frequently challenges him to be accountable for any computations that are needed for a particular job and to be compliant in building codes. This translated into Matt taking it upon himself to research nonprofits and the guidelines that need to be followed.
While he prefers to work from the shadows, he has been instrumental in insuring that events happen and giving input into the various projects that Guilds of Requiem, Inc has to help them be self-sufficient in their daily operations.
