Chris is a Ugandan wildlife and nature photographer, Safari Guide and C.E.O Uganda adventure Safaris. Born in a small village in Western Uganda and is the oldest of 8 children. As a Child, his dream was to be a radio DJ host but matured quickly as he needed to support his family and siblings. He began raising and selling rabbits on the side of the road at the age of 12 to start a small bean farm managing a small group of local farmers as he became older. With this natural sense of entrepreneurship and grit, he moved to Kampala in 2012 with only a bag and a dream. He started working as a shamba boy and taking various other odd jobs to make ends meet, again using his hustle to quickly acquire a boda boda motorcycle on a loan basis. Using it as a form of income for rides and city tours, he worked his way up in the company to a manager, learning skills of leadership and accountability. He was trusted by many tour agencies to provide freelance driving and guiding across all the national parks of Uganda including Murchison National Park and Queen Elizabeth National Park. Using his knowledge of the wild animals of Uganda, the local culture and people, and diverse landscapes mixed with his humor and helpfulness, he was able to grow his client base. Presently, he has finally saved enough to buy his car and see his dream come to life. Using his love and passion for Uganda and his desire to spread his love to others, he is always willing to give each customer a lifetime experience in the Pearl of Africa. He later became interested in photography and now organizes exclusive African wildlife and nature photography safaris in the heart of the East African bushes mainly in Uganda Rwanda and Kenya through taking round different Travel photographers to these destinations.
