Chris Devaux


Chris grew up in Westborough MA and is the oldest son of a long-time Superintendent and educator, his father Dr. Philip Devaux. Chris attended Boston College and graduated with a degree in Communications in 1992. He soon after started his career in commercial real estate with Parsons Commercial Group, helping with the significant growth of the company over his seventeen years there. Most recently joined Lincoln Property Company, one of the largest privately held real estate developers in the United States.

Chris currently resides in Needham with his wife, Lauren, and 6 kids. He has always been active with various non-profits and takes great pride in being involved in Needham youth athletics. His “aha” moment in realizing our youth were being underserved in our education systems was when a long-time teacher said to him “It’s sad that kids are now being taught what to think and not how to think.”
