Christopher has been surrounded by aviation and real estate his entire life. His uncle worked for TWA and his father a licensed pilot/aviation professional since the 1950's, later becoming a real estate mogul in the Silicon Valley, operating a family office, with over three successful decades of respected sales and property management services. Chris started his career as a carpenter in the San Francisco Bay Area at age 19, at the same time working to become a licensed pilot. While working in home building as a union carpenter he earned his A.S. Degree in Applied Engineering. He then received his certification as an instructor pilot in Palo Alto Ca., becoming a leading instructor check pilot and office manager for California's largest flight school and flying club. After receiving his Airline Transport Pilot License, instructing and managing for several years, he moved up to an illustrious airline career. Chris has enjoyed many cultures abroad, resided and flown in domiciles ranging from New York, Minneapolis, and Miami to Turkey, England, and Ireland including many major cities on the Asian continent and South America. He has flown and/or instructed over 10,000 hours in various general aviation light airplanes, and large airplanes such as the A300, A320, B727, B757/767, and the B747-400 (the whale), which he currently flies today. Chris continues to fly to many of those familiar destinations today from LAX while calling Las Vegas home. With exposure to real estate through living the family business, it is only natural Chris applies the same relentless dedication and care to his real estate colleagues, friends, and clients.
