Hello neighbors! We are Chase and Corrie Strait, co-owners of The Glass Guru of Rifle, CO.

Chase – 

I am originally from Denver, CO, went to Conifer High School in the foothills of Denver, and then attended Emily Griffith Technical College, completing a glazing construction apprenticeship in 2018.   

Prior to The Glass Guru, I worked in Commercial and Residential Glazing where I was responsible for running small crews and installing commercial glass in skyscrapers, hospitals, and schools.   

Outside of work, I enjoy Offroading, camping, and I’m always starting new hobbies to see what sticks. I have a beautiful and very outgoing wife, Corrie, a young daughter, Presley, and two fun dogs, “Booger” and “Bean”. We are very close and help build each other up. We are always going somewhere either camping, wheeling, or just renting a hotel in a new place. 

It’s a great honor and privilege to have the opportunity to serve you and we hope to be the local glass shop you can trust and rely on for many years to come. 

Corrie – 

I am originally from New Hampshire and attended Evergreen High School. I obtained my Bachelor’s Degree in Applied Human Resources Management from Grand Canyon University in 2024.

Prior to The Glass Guru, I gained valuable Human Resources, Marketing, and Operations experience.

I started The Glass Guru because I was looking for an opportunity where my husband and I would be able to contribute in a positive way to our community. We want to provide value to our customer base by giving them a glass experience that they can trust!
