Christopher Ruvo

  • Executive Editor, Counselor

Chris inks Counselor’s cover stories and much more besides, but isn’t the greatest third-person bio writer. He is, however, proud to have the promotional bobblehead beat cornered. Prior to joining ASI, he was a newspaper reporter, covering everything from capital murder trials and government corruption to, most intimidating of all, kindergarten art shows.
