Faith plays a central role in Chris’s life and mission. He credits God for saving him and giving him a second chance to live with purpose. Guided by this conviction, Chris views his work as a calling—to be a light for those lost in darkness and to help them find hope, healing, and strength through grace.
Outside of work, Chris enjoys traveling, spending time with his family, and cheering for his beloved Miami Hurricanes and Philadelphia Eagles. His passion for this work runs deep—what began as a personal journey has become a lifelong mission to inspire recovery, faith, and lasting change.
