Kris was born on April 20th, 1984 in Nampa, ID to Kris and Judi Norbryhn. He was the fourth of five children. Kris is survived by his wife, Emily Norbryhn, parents, four siblings and their families. He graduated from Skyview High School in 2002 and attended Montana Tech in Butte, MT on a football scholarship. Kris graduated from college in 2006 with a degree in Electrical Engineering.
