"The Young Professor" Matt Graifer is a Florida-based, award winning professional host who has performed in front of over 1,000,000 fans over the course of his entertainment career. He is best known for his work as "The Chief Potassium Enthusiast" for The Savannah Bananas and as a Driver Introductions Announcer for the NASCAR Cup Series. He is a passionate public speaker and educator and LOVES keeping the energy high wherever he goes. The Professor's name comes from one of his earliest jobs: he became a college professor in the field of exercise science when he was just 25 years old and spent over seven years as a college educator. In 2015 he started moonlighting as a host of bar trivia games, which was where he began referring to himself as "The Young Professor". In 2018, he began working as a sports announcer: first as a professional wrestling ring announcer and as an On-Field MC for the Jacksonville Sharks where he spent the 2018 and 2019 seasons. He then began working as a ring announcer in MMA and boxing and also sat behind the desk as a professional wrestling play-by-play commentator. In 2021, he joined the Daytona Tortugas Minor League Baseball team (affiliate of the Cincinnati Reds) as their On-Field Host and also became the On-Court Host for the Embry-Riddle Aeronautical University Men's and Women's Basketball teams. In 2022, The Young Professor was picked up by The Savannah Bananas to be a part of their record breaking Bananaball World Tour, which is documented in the acclaimed ESPN+ docuseries Bananaland. Later that year, he was recruited by the Daytona International Speedway, The World Center of Racing, to be the first ever on-stage Driver Introductions Announcer for the Coke Zero Sugar 400 in August. The Professor is now the full-time Cast Director for The Savannah Bananas and has been married to his wife Shanna since 2015. They have 4 children together.
