I found this speaker really interesting and I enjoyed what he had to share. It was cool to get a chance to talk with someone that arranges such large scale sporting events.
I found it amazing that Chris is able to manage so many people at one time.Providing transportation for thousands of people at any one time is incredible.What he said about not following through with what he originally thought he would do in high school resonated with me.I myself have only a vauge idea of what i want to do,and to see that he ended up doing something that he enjoys doing and provides a living for him.
He was super supported about what he does and it looks like he really likes the job that he is doing right know. Its good that he can find time to do badminton and his work and not be over stressed.
I thought that Chris had a really cool job managing the BC Games. I also think it's cool how he just randomly got it and has been with it for 8 years. Two ideas that stood out to me are that he decided to go for a career he loved (that had to do with sport) over something he didn't enjoy as much, and that he didn't know what he wanted to do after high school but still became a very successful person.
Chris- he was an excellent speaker and his life seemes really stress free and advernturous because of meeting all these new athletes and travelling to these events.
I thought that it was pretty neat that he has become what he is today from not knowing what he wanted to do in high school.
I thought that you have had such a cool life doing what you have wanted for your job and have gone to so many different places around the world. In the near future do you think you will come back and start back on the professional badminton curcit
I really liked how he answered the questions that we had for him, i found that he answered them very clearly. I understand now that you dont have to do what you think that your interested in you can change your mind anytime. Just because you think you will enjoy something dosent mean that you have to do it. I admire that he works with many people and has such a big responsibility.
