Born and raised in Fort Wayne, Indiana, Chris Baldwin put himself through college working multiple jobs that included employment in a lumberyard and building materials store. He graduated from Purdue University in 1992 where he was Vice President of the Student Union Board.
     After college, Chris worked in electrical building controls and managed the construction of numerous projects across the country as a General Contractor Project Manager. In 2003 he discovered his golden opportunity with National Agents Alliance.
     Chris quickly found both professional success and personal satisfaction at NAA. He came to realize that he had finally found the opportunity to be in business for himself “without the capital investment of a traditional business”.
       The integrity of the three owners created a chance for Chris to realize immense personal fulfillment in his work.  “The best part about NAA is the fact that I am able to have a real tangible impact on people’s lives.  I get a feeling of accomplishment in having a client thank me for providing a service that protects their most precious concerns in life.  It is a wonderful thing.”
     “NAA has not only improved my life, it has given me one. The development of my agency has allowed me the foundation to create stability in my life. I met my lovely wife Kelly through this business and have had a chance to settle down and have a sense of community.  In my past career I would be moving from city to city every few months without ever feeling grounded or secure. I have seen my income double every year that I've been growing with NAA.”  
    Chris credits his success with NAA to his strong work ethic, dedication to following NAA’s proven system, and his ability to “overcome challenges

along the way while keeping my goals in mind.”   He has even created a mission statement for his agency; one which reflects both the professional and personal goals which have become so meaningful to him:  "To develop and maintain a resource center for the creation of wealth and personal freedom for independent agents that provides meaningful and sufficient securities for the clients in our care."
    Chris and Kelly currently live in California with their sons Corbin and Carson, along with their Golden Retriever Sophia.  The family enjoys their yearly vacation to Corolla, NC and travels extensively on company trips for which Chris is a consistent qualifier.  Whenever possible, Chris sets time aside for his favorite leisure activity:  scuba diving. 
      As Chris looks to the future, his prospects seem endless.  In addition to the continued growth of his family, Chris plans on “continuing to work with the ownership of NAA as we continue to excel in the areas of lead development, agent development, and quality of life development for agents on our team”.  He also plans on joining the NAA Millionaire’s Club in 2007.
   Perhaps the strongest statements about who Chris is and what he does can best be explained in an excerpt taken from a letter written to his son Corbin: “Yes, your Dad is an NAA Life Insurance Man. Take pride in that fact. As you grow older and come to know the specific ways in which your dad has helped others translate their wishes into economic facts, you will know that life insurance offers a fine opportunity for fine men.”
