Savant Wealth Management

Matthew "Matt" Carron grew up in Hopedale, Massachusetts, where athletics shaped his early years. He played basketball at Dean Junior College (now Dean College) in Franklin, Massachusetts, before transferring to Northeastern University in Boston, where he earned a bachelor's degree in psychology. His interest in human behavior, combined with a desire to help others, led him to the May Institute. There, he taught children with autism and brain injuries, an experience that strengthened his commitment to guiding people through complex challenges.

In his late twenties, Matt shifted toward financial services after his parents won a life-changing state lottery prize. Motivated to help his mother protect her future, he entered the investment field with Fidelity. He advanced from answering phones to serving high-net-worth households, managing account service needs and asset trades.

Matt and his wife, Shannon, have three sons. Their oldest is a senior at Embry-Riddle Aeronautical University in Daytona Beach, Florida, with plans of becoming a commercial pilot, their middle son is studying physical therapy at Quinnipiac University in Hamden, Connecticut, and their youngest is a sophomore at Whitman-Hanson Regional High School in Hanson, Massachusetts. Away from work, he enjoys time with his family and the company of close friends he has known since the second grade.

After earning a bachelor's degree in accounting from Fairfield University in Connecticut, he launched his career in Ernst & Young's Boston financial services office, auditing financial institutions, banks, and broker-dealers.
