Prior to joining Bridge360 in 2003, Chris was a senior product developer specializing in internationalization at BMC Software. He created an international training program for developers and provided internal consulting on internationalization projects.

Chris's love for computers goes back to the days of the Commodore – yes, he still has his! He is a virtual encyclopedia of technology bits and bytes, which he uses in concert with skills learned from other passions (chess, soccer, fencing, and music) to orchestrate and build beautiful software. He shares his technical expertise as an instructor for the Austin Community College's Localization Program.

Chris's ethics and high standards demonstrate serious discipline and respect for others from his school days at the Missouri Military Academy. He abides by these standards in every relationship, bringing commitment, dedication, and drive to Bridge360 in many ways every day.

Justin joined Bridge360 in 2001 as one of its first employees. He was pulled out of early retirement to give Bridge360 its technical foundation.

Justin began his career with the Air Force as a radar instructor. He helped develop new airborne radar designs, and this effort allowed an easy transition into the aerospace field. Over the years with Philco Ford, Martin Marietta and IBM, he developed advanced, state of the art mobile computer system technologies (before cluster computing existed), satellite mobile data processing stations, and Titan ICBM field operations.

When Justin isn't in CIO-mode for Bridge360, he's taking care of the horses, cows, a burro and other animals on his small ranch outside Georgetown, Texas.
