About Chris Ruhlin

Connect with Chris ruhlin on LinkedIn

Hey there, I'm Chris Ruhlin, and I'm one of the lead environmental consultants here at RMA. I spend a lot of my time out in the field, working with clients on a 1-on-1 basis, helping them understand the ins and outs of their permits, approvals, and the laws and regulations they have to follow. From in-the-field training to making training videos for clients and customers to providing inspection & working in the field, I love providing my clients easy-to-understand, hassle-free instructions. I've been with RMA since 2013, and working at Resource Management Associates allows me to help build upon my formal education and training as a GIS Specialist, and supplement it by continually building a profound level of understanding of environmental regulations. At the end of the day, this means that I can break down the information you need to know in an easy manner and let you know what sort of implications regulations are going to have on your facility. - Outside of work, I’m somewhat of a nature buff. I like hiking, gardening, and surfing. - I have a Frisbee golf course in my backyard that's surprisingly challenging with unique rules! - I have a beautiful wife and an adorable cat!
