Lapp Tannehill hires new Senior e-Commerce Specialist, CJ Matson, from Minneapolis, to help drive our e-shop sales. Welcome CJ to our team!

Where are you from and where do you live now? I am a son of Minnesota. I grew up in the Lake Minnetonka area. Mound is my hometown. I live currently in St. Louis Park.

Pets/Family? No dog(s), wife, or children…yet.

What are your hobbies? I love to recreate outdoors. Some of my favorite ways to recreate outdoors are backpacking, hiking, camping, and paddling. I love to exercise, whether it’s swimming, strength training, cardio, or walking. Other hobbies of mine include reading, traveling, collecting live Phish albums, playing guitar, attending concerts and sporting events, watching KU and Minnesota pro sports teams, and cooking.

What are your favorite and/or recommended books, movies, and tv series?

Books: League of Denial, Beyond The Phog: Untold Stories From Kansas Basketball's Most Dominant Decade, Beyond The Streak: Untold Stories From Kansas Basketball’s Unrivaled Big 12 Reign

TV Shows: The Sopranos, The Wire, Curb Your Enthusiasm, Seinfeld, Breaking Bad, Ted Lasso

Movies: The Godfather, The Godfather Part II, The Revenant, There Will Be Blood, Saving Private Ryan, Office Space

Where did you go to college and what did you major in? I graduated from the University of Kansas with a Bachelor of Science degree in Journalism. Rock Chalk, Jayhawk!

What are past positions you've held in your career? I started my career as a copy editor and page designer at the daily newspaper in Lake Havasu City, Arizona. During my time there, I was promoted to sports editor. After I moved back home to Minnesota, I worked as the eCommerce and digital marketing coordinator for an industrial and safety distributor.

What motivates you to do better in your personal and professional life? I love to learn. I will never be too old to learn. Learning helps me become a better version of myself. Seeking education and understanding is important for personal and professional growth.

If you could give your younger self advice, what would it be? Be eager to please yourself, not others. You will set yourself up for disappointment if your happiness depends on others. Self-care and self-love are essential ingredients for a happy and healthy life.

What are you excited about at Lapp Tannehill? In my last role as eCommerce and digital marketing coordinator, I helped lead a 95-plus year old industrial and safety distributor into the modern digital age. I’m excited to leverage my experience from that role to help propel Lapp Tannehill to new heights in its digital journey.
