BackgroundChris was born in San Jose, California, was adopted at birth and grew up with three sisters in the Santa Cruz Mountains. He graduated from Los Gatos High School in 1985, and began historical studies at San Jose State University that same year.
After San Jose State and prior to starting his coaching practice, Chris ran multiple small businesses, entered the public home building industry, and today currently holds the position of Senior Vice President with an award winning California homebuilder. For the past 20 years Chris has successfully managed employees and development teams through difficult entitlements and approvals while effectively negotiating with community members, demanding city staff, countless consultants, challenging regulatory agencies, as well as fragile political networks and elected officials. Chris’ creative strategies and powerful listening skills have allowed him to entitle over 5000 homes, winning both local and national awards along the way. When not at work, Chris follows his love for the ocean and the skies as a certified scuba diving instructor, intermediate freediver, and certified Command Pilot for Angel Flight West. In his spare moments, Chris is building an experimental, two-person helicopter reminiscent of the Bell 47 helicopter featured in the M.A.S.H. television program. He hopes to achieve hovered flight before the end of this year. In addition, Chris has also participated in the Experimental Aircraft Association’s “Young Eagles” program, bringing the experience of aviation to young kids and teens. While flying and aviation are his passion, his beautiful wife Dawn and son Jacob are the true loves of Chris’ life. His 22-year-old son currently lives in Reno Nevada, and Chris shares his home with Dawn and their two spoiled rotten dogs in Tracy, California. |
