Treasurer
Mathew lives east of Dufur near Boyd and is the 5th generation to operate his family’s wheat farm, which spans from Boyd to Center Ridge and includes both Clausen and Adkisson land. Mathew attended Dufur grade school and The Dalles High School. He went to Oregon State University and graduated with a degree in Mechanical Engineering. From there, he worked as an engineer at Freightliner in Portland for 9 years before returning to the farm in 2007.
Mathew has an interest in energy and technology and an appreciation of the rural electric system from talking with his grandparents, who remember when the first electric lines were run. Mathew was elected to the Wasco Electric Board of Directors in 2014.
