Who we are
Matt Gould
Matt Gould grew up on a third-generation dairy farm in Western New York. As a dairy industry insider, he’s experienced the frustration caused by structural changes in the industry where once-reliable rules of thumb suddenly no longer apply, and has seen firsthand the vulnerability caused by having too little (or too old) information.
Matt works directly with leading dairy companies and has been featured as an expert source in national media including Bloomberg, The New York Times, and The Wall Street Journal. He holds a B.S. in economics from the University of Pennsylvania’s Wharton School.
