The Gist

Howdy! I'm Chris. A Las Vegan ("Vay-gan", not "Vee-gan") entrepreneur, originally from Canada.

There is no better way to describe me than as an entrepreneur—I eat, breathe and sleep it. My first entrepreneurial endevor was when I became a professional magician. Yep, magic. This wasn't rabbit-out-of-a-hat, type stuff. I did corporate gigs, and even performed for the American Hockey League. Filming my magic led me towards the first company I registered: TMP Media, at the age of 15. During that era, and after falling out of love for digital marketing, I became obsessed with "knowledge management". Soon after, I met my co-founder Alex, and together we started working on something called OneBase and OneBase ultimately led us to found the company "Obie". Together, with Ravinda Seunath and the support of 500 Startups (B20) we embarked upon a vision to make Obie the most intelligent solution for learning anything at work.

In 2021, Obie was acquired by a company called Lessonly. You can read more about the Obie story here.
