Chris has a strong track record translating marketing and internationalization needs into scalable web products (30+ international site launches at Spartan Race) and building proof-of-concept platforms and plugins to solve thorny integration problems. An entrepreneurial technologist who ran a recording studio and produced video series, he brings uncommon cross-disciplinary fluency in media workflows and developer tooling to help teams ship practical, production-ready solutions.
