Along with changing locales, Chris frequently changed careers. He worked as a college instructor, reference librarian, concert producer, discotheque designer, circus advanceman,
freelance journalist, real estate developer, computer programmer, and a few other odd jobs he says he can no longer recall.
"My fun-filled journey has involved a series of wholesale lifestyle and costume changes."
Looking back at those decades abroad, Chris cites his appearance representing Apple's nascent voice recognition technology at New Zealand's innaugural multimedia conference in 1994 as a professional highlight.
Following Microsoft's Bill Gates's keynote address, Chris greeted the audience with, "Everybody here knows my predecessor. But nobody knows me. Yet our stories are really the same. Just delete six zeros."
Since returning to the States, Chris has authored database-intensive web applications, namely Tracking-At-A-Glance® (Designing Success, Inc, 2003-2025) , a case management program currently used by public housing agencies, tribal councils, and social welfare organizations nationwide.
Chris currently resides in Pearland, Texas, with his wife Megumi and their three dogs, Freddie (Scottie), Milky Way (Westie) and Geronimo ("Weeniehuahua"). .
