About Me

Know Me More

Hi, I'm Chris Cheek

I'm a nerd at heart with a passion for people. I've spent over two decades programming. My passion for people made me get into managment. I love nothing more than leading and mentoring other nerds. I find pure enjoyment when I see a team come together and accomplish something amazing!

When not at work or geeking out on the computer, you will often times find me chilling with my wife and 7 year old son. We spend most of our time at the soccer fields, out ridng bikes, or chasing our three dogs around the neighborhood. If we aren't doing those things, we will all be huddled up on a couch catching a movie or playing Fortnite.
