Faculty/Coach

Matt Lindblad came to MIT in 2006 as a Physical Education Instructor for sailing and swimming and Head Coach of the Varsity Sailing program. Prior to his arrival at the institute, he had already been teaching and coaching sailing since 1999. Lindblad studied psychology with a focus on brain and behavior and neuroscience at St. Mary’s College of Maryland while competing at sailing. He continues to sail, especially trips to the British Virgin Islands and down-east Maine with family and friends. Matt’s favorite thing about teaching at MIT is when the students are excited to learn new skills and activities.
