Christopher Wren turns operational chaos into clarity. He's the systems architect who designs end to end SOPs, role-based dashboards, and accountability structures that drive measurable results. But Christopher's operational expertise isn't born from spreadsheets and theories. It's rooted in direct service to children, youth, and families. He started teaching Spanish to K-6 students during high school and continued through college. He worked at a youth crisis center and an all male boys home, then organized community programs delivering mental health services, parent classes, and family wellness events while pursuing graduate study. This foundation shapes everything he builds, operations that serve real people with real needs.

Christopher's track record speaks volumes. He's led multi-site operations across fifteen markets and two hundred sites serving 20,000 clients annually. He saved $650,000 through logistics optimization, reduced delivery costs by 18%, and lifted profitability by 25% while managing teams of 300+ employees. Previously, he improved last mile performance 25% at a high-volume Carvana hub and increased program retention 30% while directing TRIO Student Support Services at Texas A&M University Corpus Christi. An entrepreneur as well, Christopher founded GTOGoodies, generating $600,000 in annual e-commerce revenue. He doesn't just understand operations. He's built businesses, managed complex logistics, and coached teams to excellence across industries.
