Chris has been working professionally as a developer and designer since 1989. Over the years he’s built a diversified portfolio of experiences to say the least. Chris started his professional “online” career in 1994 by diving head first into the role of Creative Director for an advertising agency in Fairlawn Ohio. That same year he built his first web site and he’s been involved with developing websites, online marketing, online software and managing everything “web” related ever since.

Chris was a member of the national online creative team at Knight Ridder Digital (one of the largest online newspaper publishers in the country and the largest online content producer of it’s kind) where he designed and managed online advertising campaigns for clients, designed websites and managed about everything else that one can do along the way. After a 10 year stint at KRD, Chris joined 168MG (A local web development company in Ohio) as a managing partner where he helped to double the size of the company in just under a year. Now, as president of Sanctuary, he continues to offer the quality services, imaginative solutions and high client satisfaction that’s become his hallmark.

To round it all out, Chris is an accomplished photographer and artist, music nut, husband, and father of two wild boys and one amazing daughter. He lives in North Canton Ohio with his wife, kids and dog Cole (A black Cocker Spaniel).
