Keri Matthews, co-founder of Matthews Design Group (MDG), has a
degree in Industrial Engineering from Clemson University and a broad

As CEO of MDG, she focuses heavily on strategic planning, process
optimization, and staff wellness and development as MDG continues to

give back, and does so not only personally, but also through Matthews
Design Group. Each year, Matthews Design Group donates engineering
services to non-profit agencies, sponsors and participates in many
charity fundraising events, funds a scholarship program at UNF for
women and minorities in engineering, and partners year-round with
local high schools and colleges to provide interns with real world
experience. MDG also funded a new Robotics lab for a local school.
