Chris's love for golf started with the legendary Jack Nicklaus' iconic win at the '86 Masters, fueling his passion for the sport in his hometown of Lake Oswego. His first professional gig in golf was at Royal Oaks in Vancouver back in 2010. Chris then took his game down south to Austin, Texas, where he sharpened his golfing skills.
After a stint of full-time playing, Chris returned to Oregon as the Assistant Golf Professional at Rock Creek Country Club. He then made his mark at Quail Valley in 2019 and most recently Pumpkin Ridge, stepping into the role of Head Golf Professional.
Now, Chris is back where his passion for golf began—at a member-owned private club. He's grateful for the chance to share his excitement for the game, from teaching to playing to tournament operations.
Off the course, Chris is a die-hard Blazers fan, a Seahawks supporter, and a dedicated Beaver believer!
