Crossroads Advisers
Serving Cuyahoga County, OH
Growing up in an entrepreneurial business founded by his father in 1964, Christopher went from sweeping floors to becoming President & General Manager of Lakefront Lines/Coach USA. Working alongside his father and five siblings, he helped grow our business into a $38.9 million enterprise. Managing the family business through a generational transition, privately-equity ownership, and then to a publicly-traded company, Christopher learned firsthand the challenges of scaling, operating, and exiting a successful business enterprise – and has a passion for sharing the wisdom he has gained in a lifelong career as a visionary and performance-driven executive. In 2016, Christopher founded Crossroads Advisers with a mission: to share lessons learned of the business transition and succession/exiting with other business owners from a Business Owner’s Perspective.
