Chris grew up on the East Coast and came to Utah for the snow. He moved from Northern Virginia in 1996 to ski Utah’s famous slopes, switched to snowboarding, and never left. He stayed to attend post-graduate school at the University of Utah and has been here ever since. In the summer, Chris hangs up his snowboard and heads for the warm weather and natural landscapes of the state’s National Parks.
To Chris, caring for another person’s child isn’t just a job; it’s a privilege. You’re putting your trust in him, and that’s something he takes very seriously. He also just loves kids. He’s had three of his own, which wasn’t enough, so he decided to hang out with other people’s kids and ensure they’re healthy and happy.
Chris loves every part of the job, especially seeing a kid overcome a challenge like a developmental delay, ADD/ADHD, or mental health obstacle. If you’ve ever spent time on the slopes, you know that sometimes there’s a bump in the hill. Chris is here to help your family avoid those bumps and help you get back on your board if you fall.
