Chris believes that complexity kills: business growth, interpersonal relationships, and personal motivation.

As a career global marketing and communications executive, he has focused on advocating for simplicity and humanity—specializing in taking complicated technologies (cloud, AI, automation and enterprise software) and turning them into clear and compelling narratives that resonate with buyers and stakeholders.

For the bulk of his career at Amazon Web Services (AWS), IBM, Quadient, Siegel+Gale, and other startups and enterprises, he’s built and transformed marketing functions: designing the team, the operating model and the story that connects products, customers and executives. You can find his CV here.

Words are Chris’s passion. As a freelance writer, and photographer he focuses on telling stories of global, local, and always human interest.

He lives in Northwest Connecticut.
