Chris is a Dartmouth native who spent some time travelling the world and obtaining an arts degree before realizing that his passion for food was where he needed to go. He went back to school and is now the meal coordinator (Head Chef) at The North Grove, I came to know him while volunteering there for the community meal service.

Chris and I talked about his life up to The North Grove, his side passion/business of buying and selling records, and overcoming addictions to improve ourselves. We discussed the job he has and where the food comes from that he uses to prepare several hundred meals a week. We touched on some common themes for the pod including parenting and the importance of allowing a child to face and overcome challenges. We even touched on politics, in a polite and respectful manner.

Thank you for coming on and sharing your story and being so open with me, Chris. It's appreciated.
