Hero's job: Business

Reason for recognition: During this pandemic, Chris has been going to work every day, in person, to help support the business he works for, CIVIX, while many in his region have been able to work remotely. Chris has been instrumental in maintaining the company operations.

One thing to know: Chris has a good heart. He sees his job as a small duty to keeping the health of the region and country going strong.

Thank you for all you do, Chris Ridley.
