BIOGRAPHY
In business, as in life, one thing is certain: most of us will face some level of adversity. In both situations, having a solid support system and a growth mindset is crucial to not just dealing with hardship, but coming out stronger on the other end.
Christopher is the President and CEO of Storewise, Inc., a technology company that builds automation software for food retailers. Over the past 24 months, during the height of the pandemic, Storewise nearly tripled in growth, and maintained a 99% customer retention rate, far exceeding the average for a software company. Plus, according to Glassdoor, 70% of the employees recommend the company and 100% approve of the CEO.
Early in his career, Christopher served in many leadership roles at AT&T, Sprint and Symantec. He proved his early-stage know-how transitioning to a Silicon Valley based mobile technology company that he helped scale to a $220M, and then a $1.3B acquisition. He brings an entrepreneurial, core value mindset to every organization that he’s lead.
Christopher authored the book, “8 Steps to Overcoming Everyday Adversity,” which was endorsed by several leaders including the former Vice Chairman of the US Joint Chiefs of Staff, Admiral Bill Owens. In 2022, Christopher’s book received The Maxy Award’s runner-up in the inspirational/self-help category.
