THE TEAM: Chris, Partner/Creative Director

The Renaissance Man.

Tinkerer. Polymath. Sprezzatura..  Whatever you want to call it, Chris first had the sneaking suspicion he was just a little different when he figured out that the other kids didn’t want to hear about camshafts or the latest antique furniture his father had brought home.

True to form, his experience is varied and seemingly without rhyme or rhythm: restaurant manager, engraver, sign-maker, legal assistant, event coordinator and web designer. Last year he served as both a political consultant and produced a line of wristwatches just for fun. One thing is always true- If it doesn’t continue to weave a rich texture into his life experience he probably won’t be interested in it.

When not at ESM, Chris can be found cycling up and down the Santa Monica Bay, re-engineering a turkey fryer into a pizza oven or reading about survival techniques in the Gobi desert.
