## Resource

After bouncing around the IT world for a few years, Chris started a new journey in SEO and web marketing, then spent nearly a decade at Automattic as a support engineer and payments systems developer for WordPress.com and WooCommerce. That journey from technology to marketing to support to code shapes how he works today: asking the right questions, connecting the dots, and focusing on what's actually broken. He loves helping growing businesses turn an underperforming digital presence into something that delivers. Connect with Chris by visiting his site or on LinkedIn .
