The Foundation
Christopher’s perspective on wealth management is rooted in a lifelong commitment to disciplined capital allocation. His interest in personal finance began as a teenager and was solidified when he utilized his first paycheck from his first job to fund a Roth IRA. This early experience established a conviction for disciplined, long-term investing and serves as the primary driver for his mission: providing clients with the structural clarity and confidence needed to navigate their financial lives.

Professional Context
In addition to leading Pax Horizon, Christopher currently brings over a decade of professional experience to successively more complex roles within Global Supply Chain Management and Manufacturing in the Aerospace & Defense industry. This active role in a demanding, high-stakes sector provides an intimate understanding of the financial landscape his clients navigate daily. He is familiar with the specific challenges of the sector, including the complexities of variable compensation, industry cyclicality, and the rigorous schedules.
Christopher established Pax Horizon Wealth Management as a fee-only fiduciary firm after observing colleagues and peers navigate fragmented financial advice and high-cost products. He recognized a distinct need for a partner who could translate industrial logic into financial optimization. His objective is to help families organize their finances, minimize unnecessary expenses, and automate their systems so they can focus on their growth and primary careers.

Personal Interests
Christopher is active in the local community and maintains a commitment to various local charities that are important to his family. Based in North County San Diego, he is dedicated to raising his three children and can often be found at their elementary and high school sporting events.
When he isn’t working, Christopher enjoys the active outdoor lifestyle of the San Diego area, whether he is golfing, surfing, or heading out for a deep sea fishing trip. Life at home is often centered on family, where he manages a small flock of backyard chickens and enjoys the process of smoking meats on a pellet smoker. He also finds balance in technical home projects and is a lifelong learner, frequently reading about history, behavioral science, and finance to bring a more thoughtful perspective to the families he partners with.
