Interestingly, Chris earned a Bachelor of Arts degree in History before returning to school for his Bachelor of Science degree in Civil Engineering. Even though his first ever paid job was washing dishes at a Chinese restaurant, he admits that if he could have any job in the world and didn’t have to be concerned about income, he would love to be a youth soccer coach at the recreational level! Outside of work, he enjoys traveling, hiking, biking, cooking, and reading.

Chris and his wife have a son and daughter, as well as the family dog, Manny.
