a core part of the team for over a decade. In this role, he leads the development and management of data
infrastructure, reporting systems, and DevOps practices across Microsoft Azure, AWS, and Google Cloud Platform,

What defines Chris in his work is his ability to take complex data needs and turn them into tools that people
actually use to run their organizations. Colleagues and clients have spoken to this directly. One senior
operations leader with a 20 year career described him as the best business analyst partner she had ever worked
with, crediting his ability to understand the reporting and data needs of her organization and translate them

organizations including Instawares, Ryla Teleservices, Ask.com, and CNET Networks. That breadth gives him an
understanding of the full software and data lifecycle that makes him effective not just as a technical lead, but
as a partner to the business teams depending on the work he delivers.
