Staff Spotlight: Chris Rush, Associate Service Administrator

Chris Rush joined RE/MAX Allegiance in 2010 as an Associate Services Administrator for the

Harrisonburg. Following college, he returned to the Washington, D.C. metropolitan area.

Chris brings with him over 10 years of office administrator experience. He originally joined

the company as the “floater”, traveling to and covering office duties for many of the

Allegiance offices between Fredericksburg and Washington, D.C. Chris ultimately settled into

the role as the full-time ASA for the Fredericksburg Allegiance office, and he currently
