Chris has served on the board of directors since 2012. He holds a Bachelor's degree in Criminal Justice from UW-Eau Claire and currently works for the Menomonie Police Department.

Chris says he was fortunate enough to get accepted to the board because of the Youth Services Officer position that he was selected for at the police department. At the time, he replaced the previous Youth Services Officer who had served on the board for a number of years.

Being on the board is a rewarding experience for Chris, because of the work he gets to do with so many great people who are all passionate about serving youth in our community and surrounding communities. While a patrol officer at the police department, he got to interact with youth at the home and some of the staff. He always had a great admiration for what the group home was trying to accomplish and it was something he was excited to be a part of!

In his free time, Chris enjoys spending time with family and friends, golfing, bow hunting, and attending dirt car races.
