All you really need to know about Matt Foust is that he’s got two happy, healthy, and well-fed young boys; and that his wife is (still) entirely out of his league.  He was born and raised in the Texas panhandle (on ye Harvesters!) by a single mom, who was also his 8th grade English teacher. 
 
Matt went to TCU where he met the love of his life and Colleyville Heritage graduate, the former Katie Williams. Matt and Katie were married one month before he started at Baylor Law School.  Katie put him through law school by teaching in the Waco area. Matt and Katie returned to North Texas where Katie continued teaching and Matt began a legal career.
 
The first decade-or-so of Matt’s career was spent as a trial lawyer, defending against personal injury lawsuits in Dallas, Tarrant, and the surrounding counties. Matt recently transitioned to the role of Regional Counsel for BNSF Railway, handling litigated claims across the northern portion of the system.  Matt is passionate about public education and the vital role that it serves.

SCOTT SHARP
Scott Sharp and his wife Amanda just opened their first Volofit in Colleyville with plans to expand their unique fitness offering to 20 locations across the DFW Metroplex. Scott grew up in Amarillo and Dallas and has a background in finance, banking, and software development. A trip to Costa Rica in 2022 changed everything when he returned with a life-threatening case of typhus resulting in kidney and liver failure. The journey to health helped them find Volofit, which helped him make a full recovery. This inspired Scott and Amanda as a couple to bring Volofit to the DFW community.
 
Scott and Amanda have lived in the Colleyville area for most of their 20-year marriage.  They have two sons, Austin, and Parker, who attend Covenant Christian Academy (CCA).  They have been longtime supporters of local causes including CCA and the MS Walk Fort Worth, where Scott has been the #1 fundraiser since 2016.  After Typhus, Scott and Amanda were inspired to expand their support to the local community through the Rotary Club, and the Colleyville Chamber.
