While working for the US Forest Service in Colorado, Chip developed a comprehensive management plan for 360 acres of woodlands. With further education in marketing and business, Chip ran several businesses, including Auto Craftsmen, which he sold after 27 years in the industry.
A lifelong lover of all things outdoors, Chip enjoys hunting, fishing, winter sports, and is an avid sailor and pilot.
