Chris comes to Mutt with a broad range of production and agency experience.  She began her career as an executive assistant for the ABC reality television show “American Detective,” based out of LA and the Bay Area. She quickly realized she had a knack for production but missed her hometown of Portland, so she moved back and proceeded to get involved in the local production community. Right away, she got work as a production assistant and eventually moved her way up to Coordinator/Production Manager, working on television shows and commercials. She also worked on two feature films: as a PA on Gus Van Sant’s “Elephant” and Mike Mills’ “Thumbsucker” as Talent Coordinator.

Interested in the creative process, she landed her first agency job at Wieden + Kennedy, where she met Steve, Mike and Scott and worked as an agency producer. From there, she went on to become a freelance producer for various clients.

In her free time, she’s a master gardener, licensed massage therapist, and enjoys making pottery for friends.
