Matthew Topol
Matt Topol is a PMC member of both the Apache Arrow and Apache Iceberg projects being prolific in both communities. He is currently the primary maintainer of the Arrow Go libraries (including Parquet, Flight and FlightSQL), the creator of the iceberg-go implementation, and wrote the first book on Apache Arrow, "In-Memory Analytics with Apache Arrow". Matt is also a member of the ASF and recently started a new company, Columnar, with two colleagues from the Apache Arrow community focusing on data connectivity using Arrow Database Connectivity (ADBC).
In his spare time, Matt likes to bash his head against a keyboard, develop/run delightfully demented games of fantasy for his victims--er--friends, and share his knowledge with anyone interested who'll listen to his rants.
