Chris is a passion driven leader who excels at encouraging and empowering everyone he comes in contact with. Chris helps people to reach for their God-given purpose and excel in it!
Chris has almost 25 years of public service experience with the Air Force and a local county police agency that have helped him develop in every area of the people business. Chris connects with people effectively and efficiently in any situation. He asks questions that dig deep into root causes, not just to try to placate a person or situation, but to begin to help solve a problem. Chris listens ‘between the lines’ and is able to read a person or situation clearly and quickly. He has the perception needed to be direct, yet caring; to be positive even while challenging you.
Even before his public service, Chris had life experiences that taught him, sometimes painfully, the delicate nature of humanity. He has incorporated these life lessons into his coaching, speaking and training. This has given Chris the unique ability to create interactive and engaging opportunities for others.
Six years ago, Chris had a life altering moment. In that moment his life took on a whole new trajectory. Chris began to realize this life wasn’t ‘what was in it for me’, but instead how he could help others to achieve the success they deserved in any and every aspect of their lives. Chris has been coaching, speaking and training for over 24 years within the sectors of life he has been in, and now he works full-time providing people with the encouragement and empowerment they need to fulfill their purpose.
Chris invested in himself and became certified with the John Maxwell Team and continues to be mentored and coached by a team of the best coaches, speakers and trainers in the world. This affords him the opportunity to provide the best training available to you. Chris uses a variety of methods to bring an experience to you, your team, your business or organization, and to your life. You will leave any time you spend with Chris renewed and ready to put your dreams to the test!
