Chris is a co-owner of Redfin Solutions, LLC, a web development shop based in Portland, ME that has been specializing in building websites for Drupal for nearly 13 years. Chris and his partner met at what is now Wayfair, building truly custom web solutions for an ecommerce giant. When they decided to cut out on their own, they needed a technology that brought tons of power out of the gate, but could be adapted to the same extent that truly custom software could be, and they chose Drupal.
Chris is passionate about Drupal, the web, and Open Source in general. But when he's not evangelizing one of those things, he's go three little ones to keep him busy. If he can eke any time away, he spends it on the disc golf course.
