Chris and his wife, Tricia, have lived in Darien since 1986, where they raised their four children and now enjoy spending time with their four grandchildren.

Chris grew up in Pittsburgh as one of eight children and remains a loyal Steelers fan. Tricia grew up on Long Island as one of seven. With such a large extended family, there is always something going on—and always someone to visit.

Chris earned his undergraduate degree from the University of Notre Dame and a Master of Health Administration from Duke University.

He retired after a 40-year career in municipal finance. He began as an investment banker at Lehman Brothers before moving into asset management and private equity, where he helped launch several businesses that created high-yield municipal investment funds for institutional investors. He concluded his career in private equity investing in high-yield and distressed municipal bonds.

Chris and Tricia are members of the Middlesex Club and keep a boat at the Darien Boat Club. Chris enjoys paddle and pickleball and, with his siblings and cousins, is working on a project to research and document their family history.
