鈥淢y motivation in becoming a Trustee was to use my professional experience to support F&M's mission and liberal arts education. Specifically, my expertise in finance and endowment management was a natural fit,鈥� said DesChamps.

DesChamps currently co-chairs the Trusteeship and Governance Committee. Prior to his Board service, he was a member of Leadership Council and the Shadek Stadium Steering Committee.

鈥淎s chair-elect, I want to ensure a seamless transition and build a productive partnership with our new president, Andy Rich,鈥� DesChamps said. 鈥淚鈥檓 excited about his forward-thinking leadership and strategic approach to the challenges facing higher education and the pressures on small, liberal arts colleges. He has a compelling vision for advancing the College鈥檚 mission; my role is to be a close, constructive partner, helping him accelerate a strategic plan for F&M.鈥�

鈥淭he Board of Trustees is entrusted with the long-term stewardship of Franklin & Marshall. Our role is to ensure that the College remains true to its mission and excellence for generations to come. Matt has served with distinction in many leadership roles on the Board, and his appointment as chair-elect reflects his ongoing dedication to F&M,鈥� Noll said. 鈥淚 am confident that he will guide the Board thoughtfully in its responsibilities, and I am grateful to all of my fellow Trustees鈥攑ast, present, and future鈥攆or their service in this important work.鈥�

鈥淎s I begin my presidency, I am deeply grateful to work alongside a Board so deeply committed to Franklin & Marshall. Matt鈥檚 role as chair-elect provides continuity in that commitment,鈥� noted Franklin & Marshall President Andy Rich. 鈥淚n my first months at F&M, I have appreciated Matt鈥檚 insight, care and perspective, and I look forward to working closely with him as we advance the College together.鈥�

鈥淭he goal is to find a way to stay connected to the F&M community in a way that resonates with you personally. The College thrives when alumni find their unique way to give back.鈥�

Prior to his role at Kepos, DesChamps was a founding principal of Satellite Asset Management, L.P., and chaired its operating committee. He also worked at Morgan Stanley and at Coopers & Lybrand. He is a member of The American Institute of Certified Public Accountants.

DesChamps graduated from F&M as a government major. He played varsity football and was a member of the Black Pyramid Society and Pi Lambda Phi fraternity. He earned his MBA from the Stern School of Business at New York University in 1999. 

F&M has often honored DesChamps for his service to the College. The Alumni Association Board of Directors selected him twice as a recipient of the Alumni Development Volunteer Award, first in 2010 and again in 2017. In 2023, he was inducted into the Franklin & Marshall College Athletics Hall of Fame for his football prowess and his support for Diplomat Athletics. As a student-athlete, he established new career records in sacks (25.5) and forced fumbles (10), the latter of which still stands.

DesChamps and his wife, Julie Lattin DesChamps 鈥�93, live in Old Greenwich, Conn., with daughters Caroline and Sarah, an 乱伦视频 sophomore.

When asked about how other alumni can become more engaged, DesChamps shared a powerful message: 鈥淭he key is to find that personal connection,鈥� he said. 鈥淓ngagement isn't a one-size-fits-all approach. It can be anything from mentoring a current student, volunteering for an admissions event, attending a regional alumni gathering, or supporting a project or department that was meaningful to you. The goal is to find a way to stay connected to the F&M community in a way that resonates with you personally. The College thrives when alumni find their unique way to give back.鈥�
