Bio

There are two characteristics of Chris that made a lasting impression on me during the time we worked together; his positivity and work ethic. Chris came to work with a smile and left work with a smile, every single day. This is a quality that can be contagious in an office environment and has the ability to create a positive work environment for all. Also, Chris was continually one of the first to arrive, last to leave, and the most excited to come back the following day. I respect his work ethic and would provide a recommendation for him based on his time at Resolvit.
Jamie Litty
Chris was majoring in my department at UNC-Pembroke. I had Chris as a student and also interacted with him on campus, including his work for the Music Department. Chris treats all of his work as representative of himself, so it's always carefully prepared, on time, thorough, and polished. He's a level-headed, mature young man who's very personable to work with. He's ambitious and self-motivated, which is always a refreshing find in an undergrad.
