Growing up in Chocolate Town, USA (that's Hershey, PA for the lactose intolerant), Chris Long was destined for big things-and none of them had to do with smooth, rich, milk chocolate. His dad was a developer at IBM and, apparently, the digital gene is a dominant one. Chris attended Ursinus College outside Philadelphia, and earned a bachelor's in computer science along with minors in management and math - an academic trifecta of developer greatness. Before showing up at our doorstep, Chris worked for many years developing dynamic tradeshow registration software including frontend development and the implementation of nuanced business rules. more »

When asked why he chose to work at ADG|Creative, Chris wasn't shy in his response: "ADG appealed to me because, it offered the ability to grow professionally. There's a lot of cross-training going on, so I can get my hands into different projects and play different roles. The worst thing is to be in a place where you're idling. Here, I can kick things into gear."

In his free time, he serves as youth director at Summit Trace Church in Frederick where he most certainly doesn't corrupt the young minds of middle and high school kids. You might also find him hiking an outdoor trail or mowing down a mob of brain-hungry zombies on Xbox 360; somehow they go together. « back
