About
Christian was born in Thousand Oaks, California, and spent his formative years in both Southern California and Albuquerque, New Mexico, where he was raised by entrepreneurial parents. His mother was a successful residential real estate broker, and his father wore many hats as a land developer, investor, small business owner, and even a former Hollywood animal trainer and stuntman.
Much of Christian’s education took place in Albuquerque, but after high school, he returned to California to attend California State University, Fresno.
From an early age, Christian learned from his parents that success is not defined by one’s background or formal education, but by determination and hard work. He firmly believes that with perseverance, any goal is within reach.
