Bio
Blaze Walker
Christopher Lau is without a doubt one of the most talented individuals I've ever had the pleasure of working with. I worked with Chris at Staples, where we partnered on multiple projects and managed the Copy and Print center together. During his tenure at Staples, it was apparent that Chris had incredible desire to learn, grow, and ultimately succeed at whatever he decided to do. His ability to strategically plan projects, meet deadlines, and create high quality content were second to none. I've been lucky enough to work with Chris in many different capacities, and have always been especially impressed by his ability to quickly and professionally adapt to any situation. I thoroughly enjoyed working with Chris and miss the dedication and personality he brought with him to work each day. Chris would be an exceptional asset to any team, and I recommend him to any organization that would benefit from a hard working, detail oriented individual.
