A record built across three careers.

He also served on both the Budget and Weaponization Committees as well as the Select China Task Force.

Congressional committee record.
A rare dual assignment to both the Intelligence and Appropriations Committees — two of the most powerful and most restricted committees in the House — gives Skyline Capitol's practice a depth of access exceptionally uncommon among Washington advisory firms.
Primary Assignment
House Permanent Select Committee on Intelligence
Senior member overseeing the nation's intelligence agencies, classified programs, and national security operations. One of the most restricted and influential assignments in Congress.
Primary Assignment
House Appropriations Committee
Senior member of the Defense, State & Foreign Operations, and Interior subcommittees — overseeing the largest discretionary budget allocations in the federal government.

Appropriations Subcommittees
Defense · State & Foreign Ops · Interior
Three distinct subcommittee assignments covering military readiness and procurement, U.S. diplomacy and foreign assistance, and federal land and natural resource policy.
Military Service
Fourteen years in the United States Air Force.
Chris entered the Air Force as the Distinguished Graduate — top of his class — at Officer Training School and repeated that distinction as the top graduate of Undergraduate Pilot Training. A rare achievement that signals the level of performance he brought to every phase of his career.
He flew both rescue helicopters and the B-1B Lancer strategic bomber — the Air Force's supersonic heavy bomber — earning a flying record that includes three world speed records, including the world record for the fastest non-stop flight around the world.
World Record — Fastest Non-Stop Flight Around the World
Set the world record for the fastest non-stop circumnavigation of the globe in the B-1B Lancer — the marquee achievement of a record-setting flying career.
World Speed Record — B-1B Lancer
One of three world speed records held by Chris in the B-1B — establishing him as one of the most decorated pilots of his generation in the United States Air Force.
World Speed Record — B-1B Lancer
Three world speed records in total — a testament to both individual flying skill and the operational excellence of the Air Force crews he led and flew alongside.

Media & Public Voice
A nationally recognized voice on intelligence & security.
Chris has appeared hundreds of times on national television, bringing the credibility of his Intelligence Committee experience to the public debate on the issues that define U.S. national security policy. His media presence is both a personal platform and a professional asset that benefits every client Skyline Capitol represents.
Personal
Family, faith & Utah roots.
Chris and his wife Evie are the parents of six children. He remains deeply connected to Utah — the state he represented in Congress and the community that shaped his values of service, integrity, and commitment to something larger than oneself.
Those values are reflected in every dimension of his career: the discipline of a military officer, the accountability of an elected representative, and the perspective of a man who has stood at the intersection of history and consequence more than most people ever will.
