Matthew Corey, well known to former Chairman Juliana Simone who retired as Chair in January of this year, says Corey is the best choice for the Fazio ticket, because Matt brings veteran and small business votes to Fazio, as well as name recognition from diligently run statewide federal campaigns. As someone older than Ryan, Corey also brings wisdom, stature, and outsider appeal as someone who wants to serve the public but is not a political insider. Amanda North, the new Chairman of the Barkhamsted RTC, agrees and gives her full support to Corey joining Fazio.

Matthew McKinnon Corey was born January 11, 1964 in Hartford, CT, and is a lifelong resident of Manchester, CT. In 1951, Matt’s parents, Frederick Thomas Corey and Marie Jean Corey, came to Hartford for better job opportunities after Matt's father served in WWII.

Matt enlisted in the United States Navy in 1982. He was deployed to Beirut in 1983 and served in the Navy until 1987, receiving an Honorable Discharge.

Following his military service for our great country, Matt worked for the United States Postal Service and for the Teamsters. In 1990, Matt opened Advanced Services International, providing window cleaning services for several high rise buildings throughout Connecticut. Matt also owned and operated McKinnon's Pub in Hartford beginning in 2002. He now owns and operates The One Wood Pub at East Hartford Golf Course.

As a business owner and a resident, Matt understands how both action and inaction have impacted Connecticut's residents and business owners alike, whether in daily life, professional ventures or long term goals.
