His experience includes multiple perspectives on the industry, including account management roles at some of the world’s largest corporate production companies, including Caribiner and PGI.

Turning “lemons into lemonade,”   Chris can now pull from his decades of experience and multiple positions to bring appropriate insights and solutions to his current stable of clients. 

Chris’ experience allows him to be a “chameleon”  and fill the role that the project needs most.

Roles he finds himself in most often include;

●      Producer

●      Showcaller

●      Content manager

●      Deck or Backstage Manager

●      Writer

Whatever role he’s taking on, there are a few “constants” you’ll find when working with Chris.

 

A “Figure It Out” mentality. 

Producing a meeting or event can be full of challenges.  But that doesn't mean the show won't go on. Chris believes it’s not about the problem, afterall every problem has a solution. It's about deciding which solution is best. 

 

A Big list of contacts

Relationships matter.  And after decades in the production business, Chris has amassed a pretty big list of best in the business contacts to help make it happen.  Whatever “it” is. 

 

Calm in the midst of a Storm

After a few decades of being in the live event business, Chris has seen plenty of crazy things, been in stressful situations, and occasionally had to pull the proverbial  “rabbit out of a hat”.  In other words, Chris the experience and the “battle-tested” ability to be the calm in the midst of a storm. When everyone else is stressing out - he’ll be getting calm, cool, and getting it done.
