Chris Sauer | Systems Architecture Director
Chris Sauer sees the world differently. As a Solutions Architect in the software development world, Chris has to constantly stay in three modes: past, present, and future. Chris has to anticipate the personal, professional, and community needs of Learning Networks always trying to anticipate how to create the “Sum of the Parts” and make them larger than the “whole.” Most recently, Chris was the architect for a large portion of the technology software platform for Assurex working with Scott Roth. You can find Chris outside of work anticipating what a raw beef brisket is going to look like after it’s been in his smoker for several hours and more importantly how it is going to taste!
