Matthew Tarricone was born and raised in Rockville, Maryland. From a young age, Matthew was drawn to the arts. He immersed himself in films and began filming his own home movies. In the 6th grade, he took his first step toward acting in his school's musical production of The Wiz, followed by many school plays and musicals.

He attended Towson University in Baltimore, MD, where he earned a degree in Political Science. While in school, he earned credits in the theater department. His roommate was pursuing a degree in Film/Media which allowed Matthew to participate in many short films that his college peer directed.

After graduating from Towson, Matthew started his professional life in tech sales while exploring acting opportunities. He made his TV debut in 2013 in a leading role on Investigation Discovery, Forbidden. Being on a larger scale set excited Matthew and drove him to relocate to New York to land him more opportunities in TV, Film, and Stage. He's continued his creative journey with work in commercials (Scott's Lawn Care, BDO USA, Cliffside Malibu), TV shows (The Equalizer, Dying for Sex, Wu-Tang on Hulu, Food that Built America, Titans: The Rise of Wall Street), stage, and films (LiveLove, Treasure Trackers, and Firelight).

Matthew attended the Acting Studio, headed by Studio Director and Founder James Price, and the Margie Haber Studio in Los Angeles.
