Highlights

  • Areas of expertise include new car reviews, auto industry news, and making topics that might sound boring in another journalist’s hands … a lot less boring.
  • Interests include cars, video games, soup noodle-based foods, and putting on the same four ‘00s sitcoms on in the background as a way of feeling less lonely.
  • When he plays FIFA, he exclusively plays as the Canada women’s national team because he prefers the slower pace. And because the Canada men’s team sucks.

Experience

Chris started writing about cars as a freelancer right here at The Drive in 2017, specializing in new cars, industry news, and automobile-themed pieces of media. Since then, he has reviewed everything from Nissan Sentras to track-focused Lamborghinis to the latest Gran Turismo video game. Car reviews of his can also be found on AutoTrader Canada. He’s a member of the Automobile Journalists Association of Canada (AJAC) and serves as a juror on that organization’s annual Canadian Car of the Year awards.

Education

Chris graduated from the University of Waterloo with a BMath (yes, that is a real thing) in 2016.
