Chris loves nothing more than learning or experiencing something new. He can just as happily spend an afternoon getting lost on Wikipedia as exploring a new place. As a consequence, he travels as much as possible and reads constantly. Chris’s passion for exploration likely explains how he ended up in research, applying that same hunger to answering questions about what drives society. He has worked as a pollster and public opinion researcher for two decades charting the evolution of the American public through the tumultuous events of recent years. He joined SSRS in 2025 to help build the Civil Society Research practice, focused on research to help rebuild the institutions undergirding America.
