“As the customer success manager at Mashery I had the pleasure of working with Chris as he managed the API program at ESPN. Chris has an in-depth knowledge of how API’s work and how they would be beneficial to his organization. The vision he set forth was executed with perfection and it has helped impact the lifecycle of API’s at ESPN. Chris is not only a great software engineer but also a leader who is was a true pleasure to work with. ”
