He derived his direct approach and strong work ethic from his father who grew up on a farm, served in the military and worked outside with his hands his entire life. Christian acquired his thoughtfulness and empathy from his mother, a city girl, who always put the needs of others over her own and never met an animal she didn’t love (or want to adopt). Christian holds a Master of Business Administration in Finance from the W.P. Carey School of Business at Arizona State University, and a Bachelor of Science in Business Administration from Millersville University of Pennsylvania. He previously served on the Board of Directors of the Invest Southwest Capital Conference and currently holds FINRA Series 7, 63, 79 and 24 licenses.
