Born and raised on the east coast, Chris and his wife Amy moved west in the 90’s and have been seeking adventure since. All forms of skiing, cycling, and hiking occupy the family, and both King kids have been on the Sugar Bowl Ski Team since they were each in kindergarten – now his daughter is a junior at SBA. After 20 years in the Bay Area, the King family moved to Donner Summit full time, seizing the opportunity to be part of this wonderful community year-round. Professionally, Chris is a recovering marketing executive and currently advises start-ups – he still enjoys the process of helping tech companies and products grow from nothing to something. Chris also serves on the board of the Sierra Avalanche Center – another outlet for his dual passions of mountain winters and education.
