(He/Him)
Matteo Ferrone, a native New Yorker, is pursuing a Bachelor of Science in Biology at City College of New York to focus on a career in healthcare. This past summer he worked his first job in the field as an occupational therapist assistant at the Methodist Home for Nursing and Rehabilitation in Riverdale. A competitive ice hockey and soccer player, he grew up surrounded by dancers who have influenced his understanding of a healthy mind-healthy body connection and of a deep commitment to one's craft. He has served as WADE's production assistant and videographer since 2021 working both in Italy and in New York and has been present at every Dance HUB Italy since its inception in 2010 at the tender age of six.
