Board of Director Members
PresidentMy name is Chris Lee, and my family has been part of GVA-DC since 2018. I currently have two children attending GVA-DC, and I am passionate about the Mission and Vision it strives to fulfill.
I received my undergraduate degree in Economics from San Francisco State University and have two Masters degrees from the University of Colorado – Denver, my MBA as well as a Masters in Information Systems. Professionally I have worked in the banking industry for over 15 years, primarily focused on reporting and data analytics work.
I was born and raised in the San Francisco Bay Area and have lived in Colorado for 20+ years. I enjoy spending time with my family exploring Colorado and taking advantage of outdoor activities like hiking and fly fishing. I look forward to working with all those with a stake in the continued success of GVA-DC.
