Supervisor of Field Investigators at Time Warner Cable Matt was focused when working a case. He was very organized, a self-starter, and wrote very clear reports. Matt's attention to detail serves him well when polygraphing someone.
Chief of Police Matthew works within a long and storied history of Milwaukee's superb polygraph unit. He continues to add to that professional history with his own contributions to the service. January 23, 2014, Ross was with another company when working with Matthew at Milwaukee Police Department
I had the pleasure of both working with and supervising Matthew Quist for several years on the Milwaukee Police Department. Matthew was a highly motivated investigator, who consistently demonstrated a thorough understanding of all of the components of his job, and applied them on a regular basis. He continually improved his knowledge and skillset through continuing education, coupled with difficult and sensitive work assignments. He was a reliable professional who achieved and maintained a high rate of success, both independently and as a member of a larger investigative team. I would not hesitate to provide a recommendation for Matthew Quist. January 23, 2014, Gary managed Matthew at Milwaukee Police Department
(former) U.S. Marine, Foreign forces trainer, outdoor survival training instructor "Matt is in the top 3 of professional investigative professionals that I have had the pleasure of working with over 20 years of law enforcement, military operations, and Federal investigations. He has had a drive and determination, from the first time I met him working a foot patrol, to him assisting me as a police supervisor working complex felony criminal investigations on the street. He is focused, highly intelligent, and a problem solver. I know that going forward he will continue to be an asset to local, State, and Federal investigations in their quick resolution due to his 24/7 diligence." February 5, 2011, Jonathan E. worked directly with Matthew at Milwaukee Police Department
Forensic Polygraph Examiner and Cold Case Polygraph Consulting "I've known Matthew Quist professionally as a fellow law enforcement officer and as a polygraph examiner. Matthew personifies the character and ethics model envious by many in our profession. Determined, Dedicated, and loyal to the field of serving, I recommend Matthew to any task that he may pursue or be called upon, knowing that he will rise and welcome the challenge without pause." October 5, 2010, Anthony was with another company when working with Matthew at Milwaukee Police Department
A detective at Kettering Police Department "I attended and graduated from polygraph school with Matthew in 2007. Since our graduation, I have enlisted Matthew's assistance on numerous polygraphs both in the construction of questions and chart interpretation. I have also attended continuing education classes with Matthew and his knowledge in the polygraph field especially in administering a bilingual test without an interpreter is an asset to any company." January 29, 2010, Michael was with another company when working with Matthew at Milwaukee Police Department
"I worked with Mathew while. I was a detective with the Milwaukee Police Department. Mathew was a dedicated and ethical professional. He was fluent in Spanish and was aware of cultural differences within the community and was able to navigate those differences with ease." December 8, 2009, Antonio worked directly with Matthew at Milwaukee Police Department
