Chris Becker began rowing in middle school for Community Rowing Incorporated. It was through their youth program that he developed a passion for the sport. In 2007, Chris started his education at St. Mark's. He received a Varsity letter in crew all four years and was captain of the team his senior year. By senior year, Chris was receiving offers to row in college. That spring, Chris accepted an offer to row for Fairfield University in Connecticut. He enjoyed a successful first year before an injury sidelined him. After his sophomore fall, Coach Becker transferred to the Harvard Extension School and moved back to Boston. Chris now works with high-functioning autistic adults and coaches rowing for St. Mark's, as well as living in Sawyer as a dorm parent.
