His narratives inspire audiences to tackle their own obstacles with resilience and determination.

Chris speaks at schools, conferences, and corporate events, equipping individuals with practical tools for growth, resilience, and high performance.

“Building resilience and inner strength is no easy fight; I’m in your corner to help you rise up.”

I help students, professionals, and athletes face fear and self-doubt, transforming challenges into opportunities for growth and leadership. With the Champ Up philosophy and my A.C.T. framework, I arm audiences with the tools they need to tackle adversity head-on and come out swinging.

“Fall seven times, stand up eight—that’s the champion spirit within you.”

In my keynotes, I share personal stories and create interactive moments that resonate deeply, helping individuals build resilience, sharpen focus, and level up their mental game—whether in the ring, the classroom, or the boardroom.
