Bio
Michelle Quesinberry
It was a tremendous opportunity to work for Chris. He was my manager as I took on a new role for me and the organization. He exhibited great patience with me while I navigated my new responsibilities and was always willing to listen to my ideas and offer advice and insight, from his extensive HR background.
Barbara Hood, CPP
I worked with Chris for four years at Extended Stay. Chris is a very strong and authentic leader. He is a master at building relationships and has insightful and intelligent points of view, which he brings to the table based upon his years of experience. He was someone whose counsel was sought throughout the organization. His credibility and integrity are without reproach. He is respected and valued by all who know him. I am proud to have worked for him and would welcome the opportunity to do so again.
