Born and raised in New England, Chris has always been curious and amazed by the world around him. When he was 8 years old, as a homeschooled student with his brother and sister, he first drafted the idea that would become this book. While mom taught by asking questions, limiting barriers and providing encouragement, dad laced up his steel-toed boots and stayed true to a decades long career. Today Chris lives in North Carolina with his wife and their daughter who already knows that the world is an awesome place and her opportunities are limitless.
