Biography
Chris has lived throughout the United States but was raised primarily in Davis County. After graduation from Viewmont High School, Chris enlisted in the United States Army. While stationed with the 25th Infantry Division in Anchorage, Alaska, Chris deployed to multiple locations in the Middle East, most notably Afghanistan.
After leaving military service, Chris returned to Utah, where he received his bachelor’s degree from Weber State University, graduating magna cum laude and with departmental honors in Criminal Justice in 2017. He then received his law degree from the University of Utah, S.J. Quinney College of Law, graduating with high honors in 2021.
Chris believes that, while often challenging, the legal system can be accessible and manageable for all clients. He strives to ensure each client has a personalized experience to ensure that the stress and uncertainty of the legal process are minimized as much as possible. Whether in court or through collaborative settlement processes, Chris believes that providing clarity and understanding to each client brings a level of relief that aids in the resolution of cases for all clients.
When Chris is not assisting clients, he spends as much time as possible with his wife and daughter exploring all that Utah has to offer. Chris and his family enjoy camping, hiking, boating, and exploring throughout the state. They also take every opportunity to sightsee and explore new locations worldwide.
