About Chris Marley
I'm Chris Marley (or as most call me, Marley): people manager, creative technologist, and security advocate based in the Pacific Northwest. I have spent the last 15+ years connecting the three fields that usually sit apart: leading people, crafting visual identities, and building the systems that tie it all together. People, Design, Technology.
By day I lead teams of 5 to 200+ and build the systems behind them. My creative brain jumps in as a visual creator: brand identities, directing video and color, designing stages. When I'm not daydreaming about future technology, I'm probably over-engineering my morning coffee.
