Our Founders
Meet the archivist and other team members behind the Accessible Archivist Coalition (AAC).
Matthew
Hello all! My name is Matthew and I am one of the co-founders of The AAC. I am a modern historian with a passion for preserving the past. I started archiving and documenting as a personal project in 2025, however I realized that I would need help, and thus followed The AAC! Anything old, especially books, I love. I hope that my work within The AAC can be beneficial for the future, and anyone who needs it!
