Bio
Jonathan Ramsey, CLU
Chris is upbeat, positive, happy and likeable. Any company would be lucky to have him representing them. He also has backbone. Just ask him about the history of "Hire Me Man."
Riley Scrivner
Chris is a one-of-a-kind professional that is easy to get along with. He brings an energy to the table that is infectious and always has the customer's needs at the heart of his business. I had the privilege of working with him at Behr Paint and was always impressed with his ability to persuade and his work ethic. He served as a mentor to his new customer base in showing them how to use their new products and is a stand-up guy family man.
