G.Chris Dokos
I’m an engineer, musician, home brewer, and fierce defender of the Oxford comma. By day I’m a consummate aerospace professional and by night a pillar of the local Greek music scene. I love deep dives into new ideas and finding my way out of the weeds. Keep scrolling to learn a little more about me.

Interests
Outside of work I have two major hobbies: Music and Home Brewing.
Music
Music is a major part of my life. I have been playing Greek folk music with my father for 20 years in one of the premier Greek orchestras west of the Mississippi. In addition to the Greek band, I’ve toured the country as a member of the Troopers Drum and Bugle Corps. My music career has allowed me to travel to 45 states and perform for hundreds of thousands of people. I am skilled at the keyboard, bouzouki, guitar, and brass instruments.
Home Brewing
When I’m not at the office or on stage, I like to spend my time perfecting my home brewing techniques, processes, and recipes. I have been able to have consistent success by implementing process controls and understanding my key variables to produce quality beer, again and again. I take great pride in my craft and enjoy troubleshooting and teaching others in the community.
