That piece of advice has helped Chris through twenty years of broadcasting, and is the cornerstone of his practice as a Investment Advisor Representative and an Independent Insurance Broker, “The best place to start … is to care."

Chris' journey into finance began in 2000 in Chicago as a personal investor and trader managing his portfolio of stock and options under the tutelage of a retired owner of a Chicago brokerage firm. After a move to the Inland Northwest, John Johnson, owner of Integrated Financial Services, invited Chris to join him and Val Trca as a partner on the IFS team.
