Matthew William Knowles is an award-winning stage, TV & film actor. Growing up in South Carolina, Matt always had an interest in the arts, but found himself on a path to the football field rather than the stage.

After playing football for Clemson University and graduating with a degree in Civil Engineering, he decided to pursue his dream of being an actor.

Matthew studied acting at Beijing Film Academy and was thereafter awarded a Master’s degree by the Royal Academy of Dramatic Art (RADA).
