At True, he has continued this focus on venture and private equity, specializing in Strategy as well as People Leadership / HR roles, with an industry focus in Healthcare.


Prior to his time in search, Chris worked in executive roles with multiple high-growth, venture-backed organizations, as well as in management consulting roles with Bain & Company and the Boston Consulting Group.


Chris earned his MBA from Harvard Business School and Bachelor of Arts in Mathematics & Chemistry from Washington University in St. Louis.
