Chris is a classically trained marketer who began his career in sales.  Over a decade ago, he moved into recruiting because he was someone that was frequently recruited and was tired of recruiters hounding him to consider roles they didn’t understand, and he wasn’t interested in pursuing. He was determined to disrupt Executive Search to deliver a better result and experience for companies and the commercial talent they need.  After over a decade seeing the dysfunction in executive search firms large and small he formed Due North Executive Search in collaboration with his wife Amie.

Chris holds an MBA in Marketing and Finance from the University of Minnesota and a Master of International Management from the University of St. Thomas.  Chris is also a founding board member of SMMG MedTech an organization serving MedTech leaders with networking and knowledge sharing across the country.
