Upon moving to the Northwest in 2001, Chris joined the production faculty at the Seattle Film Institute, where he teaches motion picture production. Chris' own production company, Mosio Media, focuses on commercial, promotional, and documentary film production. When not working, you'll generally find Chris with his daughter (Lillian), or peddling his two-wheeler through the streets of Bainbridge Island and Seattle.
