Galileo has been a resident of Washington for the past five years, currently living in West Seattle. Growing up as part of an Army family, he spent the majority of his childhood in Germany.  Twelve years ago, Galileo began his career in the financial service industry in Honolulu, Hawaii, after graduating from the University of Hawaii. Working his way up, he started out as a summer intern and then joined a local bank full time after earning his degree. Galileo received a bachelor’s degree in marketing from the Shidler School of Business at the University of Hawaii’s Manoa campus. Currently, Galileo serves on the boards of both the Filipino Chamber of Commerce of the Pacific Northwest and the Boys and Girls Clubs of King County. It may sound cliché, but Galileo’s passion lies in helping businesses and watching their growth and success over time. He takes pride in helping businesses get financing to establish new locations and feels proud driving by a business’s new location knowing that he helped contribute to its existence. Galileo says, “Small businesses truly are the backbone of the American economy, and it’s such a rewarding experience to know that you played a role in the continued growth of the community.” In addition to spending time with his family, Galileo’s passions outside of work include reading, watching movies, following a variety of sports, and painting model miniatures.  Born and raised in Los Angeles, California, Chris made the move to Washington state and has lived in Issaquah for more than seven years.
