Chris became the owner of Rocky Mountain Recorders in 2016 and is the senior engineer in Studio B. Chris' fascination with recording began when his father brought him to an orchestra tracking session for IBM. Experiencing this as a 10-year-old was nothing short of awe inspiring. Chris has been involved in recording ever since. He arrived in Colorado after years in the New York advertising and network promo industry. Chris sharpened his skills working alongside the best engineers and producers at studios like Lower East Side Audio and Penny Lane Studios.
