Matthew Zessin has always been interested in plastics, specifically automotive. He was raised in the suburbs of Detroit, the Motor City.
Zessin graduated from Marquette University with a Bachelor of Business Administration, having majored in supply chain management and marketing. His first plastics job was working for Polymer Z, an automotive plastic distribution company that was acquired by resin distributor M. Holland Co. in 2015.
