Matthew Oliphant
@matthewoliphant
I write credible travel, geography, outdoor, and wellness content that makes complex information useful.
What I'm looking for
I write travel and geography features for WorldAtlas and cover Pacific Northwest recreation, meteorology, and climate topics for SnowBrains, combining rigorous fact-checking with clear, reader-first storytelling.
I've also built customer support and community engagement programs at Real Mushrooms, translated health and supplement information into practical guidance, and developed a photography portfolio spanning conservation, editorial, real estate, product, and automotive work. My volunteer conservation work and Volcano Naturalist certification reflect my deep connection to Pacific Northwest landscapes and outdoor recreation.
