Christopher T. Davis, Founder

Borne of an idea originally conceived in 1988 as a student by which the number of automobile fatalities could possibly be significantly reduced, “Roadside Angels” was founded in 2010 by Christopher T. Davis. He was determined to create a broad forum by which family and friends of automobile accident victims can express and share their stories, commemorate loved ones, stay connected, and also assist in the healing process – while at the same time providing an enhanced awareness of highway safety so that, in some way, each life so tragically lost can serve to help others.

Before “Roadside Angels” and throughout his career, Mr. Davis has worked extensively with academic institutions and not-for-profit organizations both as a financial advisor and a Certified Public Accountant. Focusing on the fiduciary responsibility of these organizations to their constituents and communities, he has helped numerous clients develop and manage their financial affairs with policy decision consultancy and investment committee education.

Chris is a graduate of Virginia Tech with degrees in business management and accounting and currently resides in Virginia where Roadside Angels is headquartered.
