I have had the pleasure of working with Chris for three years on the Des Moines Marathon. Chris is detail oriented, punctual, professional, and a true master at handling multiple tasks, at any given time, with a smile. It is clear in the teamwork that he facilitates, that Chris has developed as positive of a rapport with his collogues, volunteers, sponsors and partners as he has with my team in our time of working together. Chris is always a pleasure to work with, and I truly look forward to his return each year!
