About Chris

More than 20 years in marketing, public relations and fundraising in the healthcare arena and have taught healthcare marketing for a Midwestern University. I love the field and how intertwined it is with our lives. I have a degree in advertising, a masters in business and am certified as a fellow by the American College of Healthcare Executives. I'd like to think I know my stuff...and to that end have mentored dozens on their path through this industry.

When not working, I'm the father of three, husband of one and enjoy golf, gardening, our dog and being with the family .... mostly doing the bizillion kid activities that require support. Our great passions are our church and our Florida Gators.

I'm lucky enough to have always been there for them and help them enjoy all this country has to offer - - - helping vets get re-established would be my honor and small token of appreciation for your service to your country and my family.
