Chris was born and raised in Shawnee, OK.  A current Piedmont resident, he is the proud dad of Taylor, a student at Oklahoma University, and Jake, who is a freshman at Piedmont High School. Chris is passionate about his faith, his children, the Oklahoma Sooners, and his beloved NY Mets.  In his free time, you can find him working on his small farm with his dogs, Gandalf, Stone Gossard, and Maddie. He spends as much time (and his kids’ college funds) as possible traveling and/or attending Pearl Jam concerts.
