Meet Chris, Head Shipper and Receiver at Pine Lighting.

Chris has been with Pine Lighting for 19 years as head shipper and receiver at our Kelowna location. Beyond the warehouse, you'll find him hanging fixtures in our showroom, diagnosing technical issues, and ensuring every client order ships perfectly.

What sets Chris apart is his deep technical expertise. He troubleshoots fixture problems, understands electrical specifications, and solves installation challenges that stump most people. If a fixture isn't working right or you need to understand why a light behaves a certain way, Chris is your person.

Chris loves the variety his job offers and the constant learning—whether it's mastering new lighting technology or picking up coding as a hobby.

When he's not at the showroom, you'll find him walking his dog or diving into his latest project.

We asked Chris what excites him about the future of lighting, and he lights up talking about emerging technology and how it's changing what's possible. We also asked about his biggest frustration, and he's honest: getting timely responses from suppliers when technical issues arise.

Next time you visit, ask for Chris. He'll answer your technical questions and solve your fixture problems faster than anyone else.
