Chris is a recently retired brand strategist and business owner with over 25 years of experience. An Oxford University graduate, he co-founded The Brand Nursery, a successful brand consultancy, specializing in strategy, research, and design. Colleagues describe him as intelligent, professional, calm, and one of the greatest brand strategists they have worked with.

Outside of his professional life, Chris is a sports enthusiast with a history in cricket and basketball, and still holds a playful ambition to compete in darts. He has a keen interest in classic literature and film, and is a proud supporter of his wife, Caroline Bond, who is a successful novelist.

As a young man, his first job as a hotel porter left him with two key skills: a proficiency in darts and having read a great deal of Dickens.
