Q: What was the last picture you took with your phone?
Chris: "The last picture I took on my phone was a selfie on the beach with my daughter Lyla James."
Q: If you had to move to another country, which would you pick and why?
Chris: "Spain. I love the country and its culture. Between the tapas, siestas and beaches it’s a perfect place to live."
Q: What’s one thing we wouldn’t guess about you?
Chris: "I have no middle name."
Q: What’s a common mistake homeowners make when they take on a home improvement project themselves?
Chris: "Plant shrubs and plants too close together or too close to the house. It is important to research and find out how large a plant will get."
Q: Where do you go online to find inspiration?
Chris: "There are so many places to find inspiration online nowadays but my go to places are: Pinterest, Instagram and HGTV.com. All three are great places to just look at photos to get ideas and inspiration for whatever projects you are working on."
Q: Would you rather upgrade your closet, bathroom or kitchen?
Chris: "The kitchen because you will get the best return on investment and it is the most used room in the house."
Q: Could you live in a tiny home?
Chris: "Never. I am too tall. I would hit my head all the time."
Q: What’s a must-have at any party you’re throwing?
Chris: "Good beer and good music. That makes a great party!"
