After moving home to Laurel, Mississippi, to help his father manage and later sell a Chevrolet-Nissan car dealership, Chris was general counsel for a Mississippi-based healthcare start-up company that provided a software and staffing solution for healthcare systems and physician groups. He has also advised Mississippi physician practices on compliance, payor contracts, medical director agreements, HIPAA, fraud and abuse, and reimbursement.

Chris graduated with honors from Georgetown University. While in DC, he worked on Capitol Hill for U.S. Congressman Sonny Montgomery and U.S. Senator Trent Lott.
