In 2006, Chris left Four Seasons for two years to build an alliance between the prestigious national healthcare consulting firm, the Studer Group, and Covenant Hospice in Pensacola.

He returned to Four Seasons in 2008 to apply what he learned in the trenches on leadership to an organization he knew and loved.
