"Hello everyone! My name is Matthew Polamalu, but everyone calls me Matt. I’m currently a fourth year Psychology major with a minor in Philosophy. One of my favorite things to do is go out with friends and try new food. So, I’m always open to recommendations! I joined PSP in Spring 2021. As a transfer student, during the pandemic, I was excited for a chance to meet and organize with other students for the betterment of our community. I have had a wonderful time getting to know everybody in the fraternity and look forward to an amazing year with PSP!

This is a picture of my godson and I, last summer, while I was visiting family in Florida. I can’t remember what we were laughing at, but I’m sure it was something silly. I chose this photo because I always consider myself incredibly lucky to be the godfather to such an amazing nephew. Thanks for reading a little bit about me! "
