Matt DaSilva is a writer at BarBend.com. After getting burned by a few too many poorly researched purchases, Matt is here to make sure no one else suffers a similar fate. In addition to testing many products himself, he combs through reviews and spec sheets, giving you the info you need to know before making your next purchase.
In addition to writing, Matt is a professional actor, having performed in musicals and plays across the country. His time on the road has taught him the importance of creating an adaptable fitness regimen, and how to pick your spots from a nutritional standpoint. For example, when you’re traveling through Kansas City, you’re gonna wanna try the BBQ. So for your non-BBQ meal that day, maybe keep it to a light salad.
