Ngee Ping Ng
What I most appreciate about Chris is his passion in his work and his focus in getting his work done. All this, and more, beneath his quiet, unassuming character, made him a true servant-leader and a great coach for his team.

Over that last few years partnering with Chris in overseeing the local IT organization, I was impressed with his ability to build up a strong, capable and collaborative team. Much of this achievement was attributed to his people-oriented leadership style and great coaching skills with his team. I truly enjoyed working with Chris!
