# Chris Lombardozzi

> Chris Lombardozzi is a New Haven-based operator, Framework founding team member, and co-founder of Good Pace. At Framework he worked at the commercial hinge of the repairable-computing idea, leading marketplace and business efforts, recognizing early demand from IT managers, and helping turn replaceable parts into an operating ecosystem. His earlier role as a founding member of the Bradley Street Bicycle Co-op gives that work an unusually concrete prehistory: a practical belief that useful objects should be maintained, shared, and kept in circulation.
