Outreach

Hello! My name is Matthew Nidiffer. When I'm not studying Japanese, I enjoy photography, playing and writing about ice hockey and lacrosse, playing the guitar, and hiking!

Sports

I've been playing ice hockey since I was roughly 5 years old and lacrosse since high school. I am a goalkeeper in both sports! I was even a journalist covering the NHL's Carolina Hurricanes for a few years.

Photography

I have always been interested in capturing the world around me in stills as well as video formats. For more of my photography projects in Japan and all around the world, feel free to follow me on Instagram @mattnid!
