About Chris.

I am a transformative path-walker.

I have long held the dream of planting a church that shares leadership and centers life around the table. After my wife, Kate, and I moved to Phoenix in 2014 as she began medical school, the dream took on a new life. We partnered to plant Kaleo Phoenix in 2018. I love joining people as we walk the path of being transformed by the Spirit of Jesus whether we are drinking good coffee, sharing a meal in the neighborhood, or playing basketball. I am currently finishing my Doctor of Ministry from Fuller Seminary and have recently granted myself permission to acknowledge, I am a writer.

You’ll find a poem in the “Poetry” section titled, Backyard Identity, that serves as the origin of learning to become who I was created to be.
