President, Lead Systems Administrator
Background
Quick to pick up on technology, Chris was an avid technology enthusiast who offered
help to friends and family with whatever computer or electronic problems or questions.
He built up a reputation for being a great person to turn to for technical support.
As time progressed and Chris advanced in his technical expertise, and his job experience
significantly added to his knowledge of business operability and management. At
Rental Systems, Inc., Chris moved up to Helpdesk Support and Production R&D in no-time.
His technical yet professional approach to problems and tasks quickly proved his capabilties
of an efficient developer and leader.
While studying as an Electrical Engineer at Texas A&M University, he continued to soar
by maintaining above-average grades and extending his professional and leadership attributes
as Vice President of the Institute of Electric and Electronics Engineers (IEEE),
Texas A&M Student Branch. As Vice President, Chris took the
group to new endeavors by significantly contributing and leading students to manage and
make the organization the most active it has been since it's charter was signed. In addition, Chris
assisted the President in revamping advertisement schemes, changing the infrastructure of
the organization and led it into it's best year ever recorded. One of the most significant
achievements was completely restructuring the IEEE website by building it using dynamic Object-Oriented Programming
in PHP with MySQL storage and constructing a much more user-friendly content management system
for administrators.
In addition to being Vice President for IEEE, Chris was Publications Chairperson for the
Student Engineers' Council for 2 consecutive years. During this time, he completely revamped
The Look Book (the Student Engineers' Council free student planner) to make it more student and
schedule-friendly, as well as packed with information that students rely on daily. This, in
combination with effectively recruiting and organizing distribution to all engineering students,
resulted in 100% distribution of the planners in 1 and a half days, as opposed to his predecessor
which has 40% distribution in 6 weeks. As another wonderful cornerstone in his experince,
he managed to also help drive the Student Engineers' Council to take on additional endeavors
and change the way they addressed issues within the College of Engineering as well as drove
the SEC to better open communications to students by opening up meetings
freely to students and allow them to address their opinions directly in meetings.
Chris brings a wealth of knowledge and experience to Cerberus Interactive, Inc., some of which
is invaluable to the company. His technical experience coupled with business infrastructure and
management knowledge makes him a key player in being able to coordinate efforts of a company
that superceeds all other 21st century technical companies. We welcome his open attitude about
life, liberty, and how to run this company as he will do what is necessary of any
leader to do: prove how valuable the services we offer are and prove Cerberus is one of
the most oustanding companies of the 21st century.
