Chris Hutchins is an endless optimizer of money and life, and entrepreneur.

This story begins with him being laid off in 2008 and founding an organization called LaidOffCamp where he hosted dozens of events around the country to help the unemployed learn new skills for the evolving job market.

Then in 2011, he co-founded a company called Milk. This venture was short lived, as they were acquired by Google 13 months later.

Today he is the founder and CEO of Grove, and his mission is to make financial planning accessible and affordable for everyone.
