Chris leads the construction division of Cullinan Properties and has successfully completed the development and redevelopment of hundreds of millions of dollars in lifestyle and retail shopping centers. He designed the master development plan for the entire 200 acre Grand Prairie Developments, as well as the redevelopments of The Shoppes at College Hills and East Court Village. He began his association with Cullinan Properties in early 2002 as the leader of Urban Retail Properties' development of the Shoppes at Grand Prairie.

As Vice President of Development with Urban Retail Properties, Chris spent seventeen years developing, expanding and renovating more than ten major projects nationwide. Chris pays particular attention to not only the flow and logistics of a development, but the special amenities which can set a project apart from its competitors.
