Chris started YourSports in 2006 because he believed every game in sports-- no matter its audience size-- should be streamed online. Ever since, his company has been on a mission to find a repeatable, scalable, and profitable business model to make that vision possible. With crowdfunding, YourSports thinks they've found it.

As CEO, Chris leads the business development, operations, and product strategies for the company. Prior to YourSports, Chris started two successful ventures from his dorm room while an undergraduate at the University of Washington: PitchSmarter.com-an online baseball information and product company-- and I Love Baseball (ilovebaseball.org)-- a movement dedicated to solving the "education" problem among young ballplayers in the Dominican Republic.

Before college, Chris served DECA (deca.org) as its student National President. He then went on to play briefly for the UW baseball team, before diving into the world of entrepreneurship and sports media, eventually leading him to founding YourSports.

A tie. Hitting a 380 ft. homer in the Dominican Republic and striking out 14 in the same game. Of course they were 15-18 year olds and I was 22 but there's something magical about playing ball in the DR-I can still feel the ball flying off my bat into what seemed like the ocean. Haha.

I'll never forget that moment...Quarterbacking my fraternity's flag football team to an intramural football championship under the lights at Husky Stadium while a senior at the University of Washington was pretty special. Beating the Beta's always feels good, winning with your some of your best friends feels great.
