About
Matt Payne started working at Trinity in the winter of 2017 to fulfill the role of Graduate School Enrollment Counselor and adjunct faculty, and later the Director of Enrollment. In 2020 he moved into the role of Vice President of Student Services where he oversees Enrollment, Marketing, Financial Aid, and Student Records.

Matt is a worship leader and communicator, and he’s passionate about leadership development and team building. He lives with the conviction that Christian leaders should be the very best leaders in the world because of the empowerment of the Holy Spirit and the Christian mandate to serve.
Matt loves to learn, watch movies, grill and smoke meat, make music with friends, and play video games.
