Hello!

I’m Chris Williams, an experienced technical designer, producer, and sourcing manager based in San Francisco. I apply a variety of skillsets & knowledge at a high caliber for Fortune 500 companies, local businesses, and non-profit organizations. I consistently emerge as a natural leader that drives project teams to realize results.

Through relationship building, I have successfully identified opportunities, debated possible solutions, and implemented impactful change. When interpersonal skills are paired with technical know-how and creative problem solving, it is possible to unlock innovative solutions. I have proven this to be true when working with business owners, designers, brand managers, finance & legal partners, suppliers, coaches, athletes, friends and family.
