Bio
Justin J. Sogoian, MA
I am personally amazed at the gifts and talents that have come together in Chris Lagerlof. His ability to hold both roles of visionary leader and meticulous implementer are rare and to be admired. In working with Chris on countless projects, I have seen the beauty and been the beneficiary of both of these attributes. I am constantly impressed with what Chris is able to accomplish. He is thoughtful, thorough, and posseses an incredible "business savvy" that is hard to come by. He does all this while sill caring for those he works with, which has a positive influence on everyone involved. I highly reccomend Chris Lagerlof to anyone looking for an accomplished leader and dependable asset to any team.
