Unlike a lot of advisors in the industry that have stock broker or insurance agent backgrounds, Chris came into the industry with planning as his focus.  Retirement income planning, wealth transfer, and divorce settlement have become his specialty over the years.  Chris has helped guide countless Retiree’s, Widows and Widowers, and Divorcees through some of the happiest and toughest times in their lives.

Chris believes that while investments and insurance have their role, they are meaningless without a sound, conservative, financial strategy. Along with helping to develop the strategy with the client, he also matches up and manages the appropriate investment objective, product, or account type with the strategy.  He likes to say he matches up the “What” with the “Why.”  Implementing a strategy though is only the beginning, and he and his clients regularly hold strategy review appointments to ensure that they continue to meet their financial goals as their lives change.

Professionally, Chris holds his Life & Health Insurance licenses in multiple states.  He also holds his Series 7 and Series 66 Securities registrations in multiple states.

As a very proud Hokie, Chris is very active promoting the schools motto of Ut Prosim or “That I May Serve.”  He does this by serving as the President of the Tidewater Chapter of the Virginia Tech Alumni Association.  Under Chris’s leadership, the Chapter has been awarded the “Outstanding Chapter Award” for the last ten years from the National Alumni Association.  He was recognized nationally and awarded the “Chapter Officer of the Year” award from the National Alumni Association in 2005 for his service to the over 7,000 Virginia Tech Alumni living in the Tidewater Chapter area.  He also been asked to lead break out sessions dealing in the areas of Chapter Leadership and Organization, Web site Development, and Chapter Promotions at the National Alumni Chapter Officers Forum held each year in Blacksburg.
