About me
My Story
Hey, I'm Chris, and it's a pleasure to meet you.
From Brooklyn, NY to Portland, OR, I’ve chased my dreams across the country to do what I love most: build relationships, engage communities and weave stories that leave a lasting impression.
​
I’ve worked with all types of companies from small start ups to major brands, advising them on strategic marketing plans, creating content, and executing communication strategies that put them in front of the audiences that matter.

I have a passion for traveling and exploring the world, attending client events, and managing on-site coverage. I thrive in fast-paced settings, finding satisfaction in orchestrating order out of complexity.

Enjoyed my time at the 2022 NBA2KLEAGUE 3v3 Finals. Going from coaching a game to providing Color Commentary on the broadcast and then back to capturing content was a moment I wouldn't trade for the world.
When I’m not busy professionally tweeting, creating content, or crafting communication strategies, you can find me spending time outdoors, reading, acting, playing video games, learning new cooking recipes, or hanging out with my cat Cheshire.
