Outside of Ambition
Outside of work, Chris is passionate about sports, keeping fit (or at least trying to), travelling, and Liverpool Football Club! On weekends, he would like to be spotted wakeboarding or playing golf, but it is far more likely he will be spending time chasing around his two hyperactive children!
