Chris started his career with a management and strategy consulting firm in Chicago where he rose through four different finance and accounting roles. There, he worked with leadership to spearhead their global selling, general, and administrative (SG&A) expenses transparency initiative to increase accountability, drive higher value and sourcing efforts, and reduce costs. He then shifted to manufacturing, where he served in multiple FP&A and sales and operations planning (S&OP) leadership roles, establishing successful cost-effective, client-focused global S&OP processes as well as implementing effective financial and business operational strategies, process improvements, and controls.
Chris has always enjoyed using numbers to deliver insights and tell stories as an internal consultant. He takes pride in being a successful strategic partner in the FP&A space, driven by continuous learning, natural curiosity, creativity, and strong financial and business acumen.
