Matt Kohly has been named Socket’s You-Make-the-Difference Award winner for March!
 
Matt joined Socket’s legal team back in July 2004. In the decade since, he’s worked with other telecom companies so we can provide service in more areas, as well as working with Socket’s owners to determine which services and areas would be best for expansion. He’s also been instrumental in the development of Socket’s fiber network.
 
“For those of you who know Matt, you can clearly see that he goes above and beyond for everything that is sent his way,” said a co-worker who nominated him for the award.
 
Originally from Lexington, MO, Matt earned a bachelor’s degree in business from MU and then a master’s degree in agricultural economics. In his spare time, he likes to unwind on his bicycle or anywhere that involves a river or lake. He's even traveled by kayak across the entire state on the Missouri River! He also enjoys hanging out with his wife, Sherri, and kids Matthew and Kara.
 
“Seriously, I am stunned and flattered and very much appreciate the recognition from my peers,” says Matt about winning the award.
 
Congratulations, Matt!
