Chris was an individual competitor in 7 CrossFit Games, is an Affiliate Owner, and trainer for CrossFit Headquarters teaching a variety of seminars both domestic and internationally.

He has been fortunate enough to help grow the sport of CrossFit through competing and teaching at a variety of competitions and seminars from as early as 2007, and is currently sharing his knowledge and experience through programming for and developing Icon Athlete.

With the multiple roles he plays in the community he is a true ambassador for CrossFit. He lives in Park City, Utah with his wife, 2 kids, and their dogs Oakley and Avalanche.

While not running the affiliate at home or traveling for seminars and coaching athletes he puts his fitness to use skiing, mountain biking, and trying to keep up with his kids.
