About this title

About the Author:

Chris Clews grew up in Reisterstown, MD and is the quintessential child of the 80s. He now resides in Deerfield Beach, FL with his soon-to-be-two rescue dogs, Ferris and Bueller—the names are shocking, I know. He has a closet full of 80s movie T-shirts and a house full of 80s movie artwork which might explain why he is still single deep into his 40s. A graduate of Elon University, he has over 20 years of marketing experience and lives by the quote from the poet laureate Ferris Bueller, “Life moves pretty fast. If you don’t stop to look around once in a while, you could miss it.” This is his first published book and the first in a series called What 80s Pop Culture Teaches Us About Today’s Workplace.
