Launched in April 2015, Amazon Business generated more than a billion dollars in sales its first year.

He then joined UPS where he helped establish the company’s Healthcare vertical. Chris has extensive international experience in healthcare having led the China business for Cardinal Health and subsequently serving as CEO of Chinese medical product supplier Tiger Medical.
