In January of 2002 Chris began his career in the Financial Services Industry with Key Advisors Group in Media, PA. After 4 years of training and job experience, Chris accepted a job on the management team at DVFG Advisors, LLC. During his short time in management, Chris was able to recruit and develop a partnership with his Managing Partner of Union Benefits Group, LLC. UBG is the #1 service provider of financial planning services to labor union members throughout the Tri-State area. Chris attended Rutgers University on a lacrosse scholarship and graduated as a captain of the team while earning a degree in Labor Studies and Economics in 2001. Chris was very active in the Student-Athlete Mentoring Program while at Rutgers and spent 3 years on the board of the Student-Athlete Advisory Council.

 

Outside of work Chris remains active as President and Coach of The Headstrong Lacrosse Club along with his mentorship role as a youth leader at Ridley Park Presbyterian Church. The Headstrong Lacrosse Club was organized by Chris, Mike Holloway, Chuck Creighton, Steve Layne and Tom Dunn in honor of Nicholas E. Colleluori, a former player Chris coached who lost his only battle in life to non-hodgkins lymphoma in November of 2006. Today Headstrong Lacrosse is a team focused on demonstrating the principles set forth by Nick; hard work, determination and dedication. The Headstrong Lacrosse Club has raised over $80,000 in it’s first 2 years.  The funds are applied towards assisting local families in need of money during difficult times due to life threatening illness. Most importantly, is our ability to pass along our passion of what we stand for, how we give back first, ourselves second. We have over 250 local high school players try-out for our team each fall in hopes to carry on the tradition of Headstrong Lacrosse.

 

The three principles defining principles of Chris’s character are loyalty, honesty and hard work. Chris’s primary focus is to build strong relationships with people of similar character by providing people with an experience that changes the way they live. He believes that the success of a relationship is determined by the level of communication with the parties involved. 

 

Chris and his wife Beth were married in June of 2006 and reside in Delaware County, Pa with their two children Callie (2) and Christopher, Jr. (6mos.). He is the Son of David M. and Madeline Bryan of Folsom, Pa and his 3 sisters Erica, Lauren and Mariel are reside locally as well.    In my spare time I enjoy spending time with my family, giving back and playing lacrosse and golf. I believe in innovation and it’s ability to transform the way we think and act each day. I want people to live what they dream!
