Matt Bergheiser

Matt Bergheiser joined UCD as Executive Director in 2009 and was promoted to President in 2016. In his previous work as Philadelphia Regional Director of the Knight Foundation, he gave away money for a living. As a result - in stark contrast to his time at UCD – everyone treated him nicely and laughed at all his jokes. He is board chair of the Barra Foundation, and chair emeritus of Community College of Philadelphia. Matt believes passionately in cities and in creating opportunities for people and places to thrive. He holds a B.A. from Princeton University and an MBA from the Wharton School at the University of Pennsylvania.
