Chris Lynch

Chris is thrilled to be at Marbridge after almost thirty years in for-profit finance and accounting. He came to Austin over twenty-five years ago, from New York via California, to become a Longhorn and get his MBA, graduating with honors and moving to Dallas to work for PriceWaterhouseCoopers. He returned to Austin three years later as Controller for a medium-sized life insurance company and, fortunately, has been in Austin ever since. He has worked as Controller for a dot com in the heyday, Chief Financial Officer for a successor dot com, and Chief Financial Officer for a chemicals company, primarily serving the U.S. oil and gas economy, experiencing boom times and bust times. He also purchased, merged, un-merged, and sold his own CPA practice, consulting with hundreds of small and medium businesses over those dozen years, from retailers to technology manufacturers to non-profit associations. His experience in regulatory compliance, strategic planning, financial leadership, and serving others provides Marbridge a strong steward for its assets, especially its residents.
