In April of 2020, in the early days of the lockdowns and pandemic threat response - we got new neighbors. Days after, we invited them to our then-12th annual backyard Cinco de Mayo party. Thinking “Oh, great, we’ve moved in next door to crazy people” they politely declined our invitation, but did accept some leftover pork carnitas and cilantro-lime coleslaw I set on the fence. But after eating that leftover pork their hearts were won - and we’ve been over-the-fence-friends with regular patio time and meals together ever since, and occasional mini-golf excursions in the ‘hood.
Clarity Project Management was born of a collision of interests between Chris and his now-wife, Kristi Corbin. She’d been laid off from an educational sales background, and became more and more interested in the contracting work that Chris was doing for a larger company. Months later, she’d started an LLC, gotten some jobs, and hired Chris in a contract (now full-time) role. He was soon joined by his son and some industry contacts - and it was on! Clarty does high-impact finish carpentry for bars and restaurants and venues and retail enterprises all across the country, and Chris and his team go on 3-6 week high-intensity missions to complete these projects.
I told Chris we could party during the podcast, and he took me up on it. We drank about 2 of the 3 liters of cabernet in the Black Box and smoked two fatty J’s during the show while he shared his interesting journey - and then we played drinky ping pong after, and had more fun conversation during the walk home together. Chris is a creative misfit that has found a great-fit place in the world, and I’m so glad he and Kristi moved in next door during those strange days of 2020! So please join me in enjoying my conversation with my interesting and entertaining neighbor - Chris Corbin.
