[Matt has his sunglasses on, so that it's not immediately noticeable that he's not looking directly at the camera. The angle is also a little off. Slightly crooked. But his smile is warm and friendly]

Hello, everyone. My name is Matthew Murdock. I've been here for a few weeks now, so I thought I'd finally make an introduction. I think most of my posts are going to be audio from here on out, but I wanted to at least try one video post. So you can put a name to a face, I guess.

I uh, I was a lawyer, at home. And I'm a social service worker, here. I look forward to meeting more of you.

( his name sounds familiar, but she can't quite place his face... )

Looks like that makes two of us marked for social work here.

( and if for some reason he doesn't know her face either, )

I'm Natasha.

Natasha, very nice to meet you. I look forward to working with you. Can I ask, what brought you into social work?

[usedtohavenothing]

Likewise. Honestly? I've dealt with a lot of weird ( and terrible, ) shit. Figured I might as well put the experiences to good use in helping kids brought in.

I was an orphan, growing up. I lost my dad when I was young, and was raised by nuns in an orphanage after that. Aged out of the system and went to college, then to law school. So I guess social work has always sort of been my calling.

There are a lot of young people here. If we can do something to help them, to make sure they have good, safe homes, I'm happy to do that.
