Chris Alvarez always had a desire to serve with the best of the best. Originally wanting to join the United States Marine Corps, a teacher and mentor guided him to research the United States Navy SEALs. What he discovered lit a flame and in 2009 he joined the U.S. Navy beginning his journey to join the SEAL brotherhood.

That journey would eventually lead Alvarez to the Navy’s Basic Underwater Demolition/SEAL Training course, better known as BUD/S. Designed to test stamina, leadership, and teamwork, BUD/S is considered to be one of the most difficult training courses in the United States military. Alvarez would complete BUD/S, Serve on two deployments with the SEALs, and then return to Coronado as a SEAL Instructor.

After being medically discharged from the Navy in 2020 Chris Alvarez decided to pursue his passion for the arts and became an actor. Most recently he starred opposite Chris Pratt in Amazon Prime Series “The Terminal List” (2022).
