Chicago, Illinois

Chris is an MBA candidate at the Kellogg School of Mangement where he is currently enrolled in the Masters in Management and Manufacturing (MMM) program. Prior to matriculating at Kellogg, Chris served as a paratrooper in the US Army’s elite 82nd Airborne Division. As a result, Chris has more than four years experience teaching and training soldiers in the use and employment of parachutes as well as a myriad of other soldier tasks. No small task on its own, Chris also deployed to Fallujah, Iraq and spent more than one year with a research and development lab developing new Soldier technologies.

Prior to serving in the military, Chris completed his BS in mathematics at the University of Notre Dame (Go IRISH!). There, Chris combined his passion for football with his knack for teaching and tutored many athletes and fellow students in math. In addition to his continuous tutoring work, Chris also spent two summers working as an adult education instructor whereby he prepared large classes of students to pass the Connecticut GED examination.

A fun loving guy, Chris possesses a passion for making learning both enjoyable and memorable. To Chris, the likelihood of a student learning increases when that student is engaged and happy to be learning. As a result, students in Chris’ classroom can expect to be both highly motivated and also well prepared to excel on the GMAT. In addition to promoting enjoyable education, Chris also believes that hard work pays off and he is apt to offer up his 760 GMAT score as evidence to this point.

When not studying or working, Chris is usually found engaging in some sort of athletic activity or watching athletic activities on television. Chris also loves cooking gourmet meals with his lovely wife Maureen, and as such his students should expect to enjoy baked goods at class every once in a while.

“Chris is friendly, his willingness to stay before and after class to help students, and when he follows up with students after class.”
