About Chris
Chris is a Senior Wealth Advisor who strives to help people find clarity in reaching their goals and wants to work with them to find a balance between planning for tomorrow and living fully for today.
Before joining Focus Partners Wealth , Chris worked for and managed a tax office for several years. He later moved to South Korea, where he worked for the Army as a financial counselor, helping everyone from 18-year-old service members getting their first real paychecks to those approaching retirement. He witnessed the stress caused both by spending too much money and the stress of missing opportunities due to sacrificing too much earlier in life.
Chris lives in the Pacific Northwest, where he plays music with a local wind ensemble and is usually at the gym at the crack of dawn. In his free time, he enjoys reading, hiking, climbing, biking, or doing anything else outdoors with his wife Katrina and their two children.
