Hello 👋 - My name is Matt Kenny, and I’m interested in mapping technologies, woodworking, and growing with my amazing wife and twin sons.

I’m taking time off work to recover after caring for my mom through brain cancer, dementia, and hospice.

I most recently spent nine years as an engineer on the Maps team at Tableau Software in Seattle, WA.

Prior to that, I worked as a cartographer and Geographic Information Systems (GIS) analyst working with Tribal governments in Washington, Oregon, Alaska, and the American Southwest at RIDOLFI.

Interested in blues music or community radio? Check out a weekly radio show I produce, "Rollin With the Blues", hosted by Seattle blues musician CT Thompson on KVRU 105.7 LPFM in Seattle's Rainier Valley. Monday and Friday evenings at 8PM.

Feel free to say "hello" with any of the following socials:
