Matt Johnson was born in Salina, Kansas. In 2007, he moved to Lawrence to attend the University of Kansas. He graduated in 2011 with a Bachelor's of General Studies in political science and a minor in film and media studies. You'll frequently find him reading or writing, but if there's no deadline lurking over him, he may be having a marathon conversation with a good friend. He loves to travel, but the cruelty of college austerity has kept him from indulging this aspect of his personality. He's currently pursuing his Master's in journalism at KU.
