He found CrossFit through a long-time friend and coworker (now a Velox coach) during buddy week.  He attended CrossFit  4-5 times a month to break up his own workout routine. His CrossFit career really got started with the 2017 Open. Soon after he realized the positive   benefits that this amazing sport and Velox community offered. Chris has been a firefighter paramedic for 16 years, understanding the need to be a tactical athlete on the job, realized that CrossFit was the best option to achieve the health, fitness, and mobility his profession demands.  In 2018, he became a Velox coach. Chris has a passion for helping any athlete achieve their  goals, whether in group setting or one on one, he takes a personal interest in each athlete from our Velox youth, to our competitive adult athletes or the senior adult that wants to improve their quality of life. Chris holds CF-L1 and CF Kids certifications. Is a student of healthy and quality movements in all disciplines, continually studying learning and pursuing education to better serve our athletes.
