Meet your pool care team.
The people behind the clean water, the service reports, and the peace of mind. Get to know the Sunrise team.
Jeff
Jeff is the owner of Sunrise Pool & Spa and has spent the last four years building a pool service company rooted in reliability, clear communication, and customer satisfaction. Originally from Tampa, Florida, Jeff brings a hands-on, problem-solving mindset to the business and genuinely enjoys helping customers find solutions they can trust. When he’s not working, you’ll most likely find him relaxing by his pool with a cold Juicy Jay in hand—or hunting down vintage 1980s baseball cards for his collection. Jeff is married with two kids and two puppies, and somehow still finds time to volunteer as a high jump coach at Weddington Middle School. A self-proclaimed early bird, he fuels his mornings with coffee and his drive time with the SmartLess podcast or a little ’80s music. Jeff’s philosophy is simple: show up, communicate clearly, and take care of people—and the rest tends to work itself out.
Josh
Josh is the General Manager at Sunrise Pool & Spa and brings over five years of pool industry experience to the team. A Charlotte native, Josh joined Sunrise in October 2024 and enjoys working outdoors while helping customers feel confident their pools are safe and ready to enjoy. Outside of work, Josh spends much of his time with his three kids and enjoys music, reading, movies, and being outdoors. He has a creative background in music and filmmaking and once played and sang for a living for churches. Fueled by energy drinks and usually listening to a mix of R&B or classic singer-songwriters on the drive, Josh is known by his coworkers as hardworking and fun. He believes great pool service comes down to attention to detail and truly listening to customers—always asking himself before leaving a pool, “Would I let my own children swim here?”
Chris
Chris is a service and repair technician at Sunrise Pool & Spa and brings over three years of pool industry experience to the team. Originally from Boonville, New York, Chris joined Sunrise in June 2026 and appreciates the mix of hands-on work and problem-solving that comes with pool care. Outside of work, he enjoys exploring Charlotte with his girlfriend, Asa, collecting vinyl records, and catching up on comedy podcasts. Chris and Asa recently adopted a five-year-old cat named Kimchi, who has quickly become part of the family. A coffee drinker with a wide-ranging taste in music, Chris believes great pool service means giving customers peace of mind by addressing problems before they become bigger issues.
Porter
Porter is a service technician at Sunrise Pool & Spa and brings over three years of pool industry experience to the team. Originally from Rock Hill, South Carolina, Porter joined Sunrise in August 2026 and feels right at home working outdoors. When he’s not taking care of pools, you’ll likely find him hiking, working out, or spending time with his three dogs—Marcus, Selah, and Maximus. A Panthers and Gamecocks fan, Porter also spent several years as a camp counselor and admits he still has a tendency to lead the group in songs whenever a long walk breaks out. He’s even called Alaska home at one point. Known by his coworkers as diligent, Porter believes great service starts with relationships built on integrity and takes pride in earning the trust of his customers. And if there’s a dog in the backyard, no need to put it inside—Porter would probably prefer the company!
