About Christopher
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.
Christopher holds an MBA from Florida International University (Miami), BA from The Catholic University of America (Washington DC), has completed 4 triathlons including a 70.3 Ironman, and lives in the Kansas City area with his wife, two kids, and rescue dog.

A2 Hosting
I’ve been using A2 Hosting for several years. They offer state of the art SSD hosting for all of their plans. Their sites are super fast and easy to setup. I rarely need support, but when I was migrating my sites to a larger plan I used their support services and they were phenomenal. I highly recommend A2 hosting for all of your hosting needs. And I also recommend everyone to have a personal website. If you’re in technology and looking for a job and don’t have your own website, I probably wouldn’t hire you. Just sayin’.
