Hey!

I'm Chris - husband to my amazing wife Sarah and dad to our two little girls, Emerie and Eloise (with baby girl #3 on the way!).

Sarah and I have a bit of a boomerang love story. I knew she was the one right away, but we needed a seven-year break while she traveled the world before finding our way back to each other. Sometimes the best stories don't follow a straight line!

Our family runs on coffee shop visits, board games, and as much outdoor time as we can get. Beach or mountains? Yes please! Both our girls have inherited our love for nature - Emerie channels her creativity into making thoughtful gifts for others, while Eloise has this incredible ability to sense when someone needs a hug.

When I'm not chasing the kids around, I try to live by Roosevelt's "Man in the Arena" philosophy - it's not about avoiding failure but having the courage to try. That's what I hope to teach our kids: work hard, be kind, and remember you can't control what happens, but you can always control how you respond.

When I am not at work, you can usually find me under a pile of pillows with two little "crazies" on top of me!
