Chris Hjelm

Chris Hjelm is the Chicago Office Lead and Head of Data. Chris ran his short-focused prop trading firm out of the Connetic Office for 3 years until his wife decided he should lower his blood pressure by investing in start-ups instead. Luckily for those 3 years he attended nearly all pitch days, became a term sheet master, and made a few angel investments on the side. Prior to trading Chris worked in various data analytics roles creating and selling custom analytic solutions. In his latest data role, Chris stood up a data practice for an e-commerce specific consulting company. In his spare time Chris likes to shoot course records in Golden Tee and visit cities people have never heard of.
