Chris was born and raised in North Dakota, moving to the Twin Cities in the late 90s. He began working as a carpenter for a small custom home builder. Then worked as the foreman of a framing crew custom home builder. When an injury prevented his return to construction, Chris went to Anoka tech school and received a degree in architectural drafting and design. He worked as a drafter for an Engineering firm until November of 2020 before joining Hanson Builders. Chris’ career experience allows him to see design and architecture from both lenses of framer and draftsman. Chris pays great attention to detail, his past experience and knowledge of building custom homes translates well to drawing plans. Chris is excited to be part of the Hanson Team. In his free time, Chris enjoys fishing both open and hard water as well as snowmobiling and spending time with family and friends.
