He is a CERTIFIED FINANCIAL PLANNER®.

Outside the office, Chris spends his time with his wife Brandi and their three children, Caden, Colin, and Brooklyn, along with the family’s dog and four cats. He’s an avid outdoorsman who enjoys exploring California’s national parks, golfing, and cycling, and he serves as team director and head coach of the Woodcrest Christian Mountain Bike Team.
