Chris is a young, vibrant, dedicated and inspiring professional. He is honest, has integrity, is teachable and goes over and beyond on any task he has been assigned to. I have worked with Chris professionally for the past 6 years and I can attest that he will always bring his A-game to the team. He is meticulous, agile, confident and is very dependable. He never misses an opportunity for growth and self development and is also willing to see every member of his team win. Chris is the definition of a true leader and is very professional and ethically grounded He is always a delight to have on any team and project. I recommend him unreservedly.

I have known Chris for many years and worked with him on two projects involving the implementation of workplace well-being initiatives. Even though Chris is highly skilled in program development, he always looks for opportunities to develop his skills and knowledge. Chris is a supportive manager and this makes him get the best out of every team member. He pays attention to details and therefore identifies everyone's strengths and weaknesses. Chris gives feedback constructively and always looks for opportunities to help others develop their skills. I highly recommend Chris for managerial positions. He is a great manager and a collaborative colleague.

Working with Chris was so enlightening, he helped nurture and still nurtures my dream to be the best I can be as a clinical psychologist and EAP professional. Off the job Chris is also a standup guy and someone to rely on.
