Cris grew up playing in the local recreational sports leagues and exploring fragmented woodlands near his childhood home in Vineland, NJ. His love for the outdoors and sports led him to a career in landscape architecture with an emphasis on public space and parks design. He currently leads the planning and landscape architecture practice for Chen Moore and Associates, a Florida based multi-disciplinary consulting firm. There, Cris and his team develop design solutions for local communities which aim to support equity and resilience through an investigative and collaborative design process.
