Chris is a Marine Corp, combat veteran, turned coach, trainer, and author.
His passion lies in empowering people with the tools to execute on what matters most to them. His life leading up to his enlistment in the United States Marine Corp was about discovering masculinity and what it took to be a man. Without a father he found purpose and passion in playing baseball. This is where he found a sense of self, confidence, and value in himself establishing an awareness around work ethic. Ultimately gaining a philosophy of "what you put into things you will get out of them."
Chris chose to join the Marine Corp to hopefully discover that masculinity factor he was striving so hard to find. He wound up serving 4 years, traveling to Okinawa, multiple cities in the US, and he even did a deployment to Afghanistan in 2010. It was there when he met a SGT who was all about personal development and entrepreneurship that introduced him to a new way of thinking. Over the course of 7 months in the dessert, Chris read books around success, performance, and mindset.
The book "Think & Grow Rich" by Napoleon Hill was the game-changer that had him realize that life was not fated to him and he could in fact design his own life. That's when he chose to get out and take the skills and mindset the military gave him of commitment to excellence, integrity, honor, attention to detail, and high performance and bring them into a new venture.
