He is especially committed to serving families who are building wealth for the first time, including many first-generation immigrant families, and to aligning their financial decisions with their values, goals, and aspirations.
Christopher earned a Bachelor of Science in Finance from Penn State’s AACSB-accredited business program, along with a certificate in Financial Planning that fulfills the education requirement for CFP® certification. He works alongside Tricia Ludgate, CFP®, deepening his expertise in client service and comprehensive financial planning while pursuing additional industry licenses and professional development.

Before moving into financial services, Christopher owned and operated a family restaurant, and he continues to serve as a managing member of a real estate company. These experiences give him firsthand insight into entrepreneurship, cash flow management, and the challenge of balancing business ownership with family life.
Christopher lives in Berks County, Pennsylvania, with his wife, Monica, and their daughter, Natalia. He is dedicated to helping clients build financial security and create meaningful legacies for future generations. In his free time, Chris enjoys spending time with family, watching football, traveling to new destinations, and relaxing at the beach.
