Chris Durno

Chris’s journey from professional hockey player to award-winning Investment Advisor may seem unconventional—but it’s exactly that diverse experience that sets him apart. After retiring from hockey, Chris returned to his academic roots in Business and Finance, discovering a true passion for wealth management. What started with managing his own investments quickly evolved into a deep, purpose-driven career helping others secure their financial futures.

Today, Chris is an Investment Advisor at Cresco Wealth Management, where he is not only a trusted advisor to clients, but also a driving force behind the direction of the firm. As a key architect of Cresco’s business plan and long-term strategy, Chris ensures that everything Cresco does is focused on one thing: the success of the client. He also coaches and mentors the internal team, inspiring a culture of integrity, accountability, and commitment to the Cresco brand promise.

Recognized as an award-winning advisor, Chris brings a unique blend of technical expertise, strategic thinking, and emotional intelligence to his work. He takes pride in helping clients navigate life’s complexities and stay on track toward their goals—whether that’s retirement, legacy planning, or financial independence. For Chris, this is more than a career—it’s a calling to serve others with care, clarity, and conviction.

Chris continues to apply the core values that shaped his hockey career—discipline, leadership, and teamwork—to every client relationship. He remains active with the Calgary Flames Alumni, supporting charitable initiatives that give back to the community.

Outside the office, Chris’s love for sports lives on through his greatest joy: his three kids. He now finds himself behind the bench, coaching them in their own athletic journeys and passing on the same lessons that shaped his life—on and off the ice.
