He is most proud of the team he has at Monarch Title. He has managed people and projects throughout his career, but his current staff is the best team he has ever had the privilege to lead. He always reminds his staff and people outside of the organization that a company’s most important asset is the people within the organization, and how their culture and values align as a group. He feels his greatest performance indicator for his company is when his staff are willing to question the status quo and make suggestions without fear of rejection.

Chuck is active in sports — he enjoys a number of sports and outdoor activities, including fly fishing, golf, tennis, racquetball, and working out. Chuck and Pam enjoy spending time with friends and colleagues at the MU football games, golfing at The Club at Old Hawthorne and traveling.,
