Chris joined the FOX 31/KWGN Channel 2 news team in August 2010 as general assignment reporter.
You can see him on Good Day Colorado and Daybreak weekdays from 5 a.m. to 9 a.m.
Once he arrived in Denver, Chris wasted no time getting to work. In his second week on the job, Chris was one of the first reporters on-scene at the Fourmile Canyon Fire in Boulder. He was live on the air as hundreds of residents scrambled to evacuate. The fire turned out to be the most destructive wildfire in Colorado's history.
Before coming to Denver, Chris spent two years at KGAN/KFXA TV in Cedar Rapids, Iowa as their hard news reporter and weekend sports anchor. During his stay, Chris held city officials accountable, uncovered shady businesses, and helped viewers solve their problems. He also covered the University of Iowa's 2010 run to the Orange Bowl Championship.
Chris landed his first job at KGWN-TV in Cheyenne, Wyoming. While he was there, Chris managed to wear a pair of cowboy boots, a cowboy hat and wrangler jeans to cover Cheyenne Frontier Days, the world's largest outdoor rodeo.
Chris has been nominated for two Emmy's for his investigative reporting. He was named Best Anchor by the Wyoming Association of Broadcasters in 2008. The previous year he was honored for his reporting and breaking news coverage.
Chris graduated from the Edward R. Murrow College of Communication at Washington State University with a degree in broadcast journalism.
Originally from Seattle, Chris is very excited to call Denver his new home. During his free time, Chris enjoys shooting hoops, watching the Nuggets and struggling with his below average golf game.
Chris is an active member of the Asian American Journalists Association.
