CHRIS M. WALTER, PRESIDENT
Chris started his career in construction at the early age of the age 15 when he helped his father renovate their farm house that has been in the Walter family over 75 years. Since that first project, the entire construction process from ideas, to paper, to reality has been his life's passion. His early years of formal education were concentrated in building and drafting classes. He then obtained a Bachelors of Science Degree in Construction Management while working full time for a commercial general contractor. Upon graduation, Chris secured employment with a national contractor for Arby's Restaurants. Chris traveled extensively throughout the country renovating and building new facilities for Arby's Inc. With an opportunity to gain knowledge in hospital construction Chris then found himself as Project eng. for our local Peninsula Regional Medical Center. In 1994, at the age of 32 Chris started up CMSI with the emphasis on bringing field experience and knowledge to the design and estimating tables. CMSI has been successful in part by his steady and constant commitment to customer satisfaction. The strong work ethic that was instilled in Chris in his childhood on a 500 acre farm in mid-Michigan is truly evident in his commitment to CMSI and its customers.

After a transfer, to one of its corporate offices, she decided to further her education in the field by obtaining an Associates of Science Degree in Construction Engineering and further her experience by working in the Campus Central Supplies Office which supplied all repair and maintenance materials for the entire campus.
