The Impact of Technology on Parenting: "The problem with technology today is parents don't know how to curate any type of environment."
Matt McKee is just another guy trying to make a difference.
Matt helped found three tech companies over the course of his career and invested in more than a dozen others. He was passionate about the intersection of parenting and technology and considered it one of his specialties, having spoken at places like SXSW, CES, and the National PTA.
Matt was the author of Parent Chat: The Technology Chat for Every Family and Parenting In A Tech World which enabled him to share what he learned about raising kids in the digital age.
Sadly, Matt passed away in 2023. Our community lost one of the good men, truly doing God's work.
