Chris has been an Oregon native most of his life, growing up in Klamath Falls and moving to Portland after Graduating from Oregon Tech. He spent much of his early Norwest career stationed at a refinery in Tacoma, WA, and gained valuable hands-on experience from project inception to onsite construction support during multiple refinery-wide turnarounds. He has carried this experience with him through his career, managing various heavy industrial projects throughout the United States.
In his spare time, Chris enjoys hiking and backpacking, and volunteers to lead a local scout troop in Beaverton, OR.
