# Team Member Profile: Matt Bell

![mattb-team](https://www.inmotionhosting.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2014/12/MattB2.jpg)*Hometown:* Portsmouth, VA

*Position:* Sales Supervisor

InMotion Hosting team member since February 2009

 

 

 

**How did you get started in the web hosting field?**

I’ve always been the person that my family and friends approached for computer related issues, but the first time I heard anything about Web Hosting was actually when starting with InMotion. From there I quickly found that the industry is one of the only industries that is constantly evolving and growing, which is extremely exciting. WordPress is where I first learned the art of web design and especially coding, and now I’m not only a contact for computer problems but the person that my friends and family contact about setting up their website!

**What is your current role at InMotion Hosting? What do you like most about it?**

I’m currently the Sales Supervisor here at InMotion Hosting. I love this role because I can share the knowledge and experience I have gathered over my tenure with InMotion. Being able to help improve the overall customer experience by increasing the knowledge of each sales representative is a reward in itself.

**Coolest gadget you own, want to own, or have read about?**

I want a drone. I have no idea what I would use it for, but wouldn’t it be cool to say, “Yea, I own a drone.” Most likely I would end up using it to provide endless games of fetch with my dog. After about a couple hours of throwing a tennis ball, using a drone to carry the ball away and drop it would be amazing!

**What would you like to tell us about yourself?**

I’m a huge chemistry nerd. When I was a kid I would (without knowing what would happen) mix any and every household chemical I could find. It wasn’t the smartest thing in the world at the time but now that I’m an adult I thoroughly enjoy studying chemistry. The potential of chemical engineering is endless, especially what can now be done with alternative fuels.

**Describe your personality in one word**

Perceptive.
