Chris’ philosophy of “building opportunities together” can be seen throughout his work as Vice President of SGA Design Group, where he serves on the Board of Directors. He is also director of SGA’s Bentonville office and co-Principal in Charge of the Walmart client relationship. Chris values relationships – both within the firm as well as those with clients. He believes clear and honest communications not only build trust, but also enable a level of adaptability and responsiveness that translates to greater value to the client. Chris has been with the firm since 1997, and graduated from the University of Oklahoma in 1993. A leading force with SGA since 1995, John has seen the firm grow from three people to over 90. He is Vice President of SGA and serves on the firm’s Board of Directors. He is also co-Principal in Charge of the Walmart relationship, where he takes pride in holding his client’s goals and demands as sacred. John believes in taking a proactive approach to ensure the success of each project, looking ahead for possible roadblocks and removing them before they become an issue. He attributes much of SGA Design Group’s ability to deliver outstanding results to being able to keep a broad perspective and grow a diverse, talented team. John graduated from the University of Oklahoma in 1987.
