Christian graduated from the University of Missouri-Columbia with bachelors degrees in Political Science and Philosophy, was awarded a teaching fellowship in Philosophy at the University of Missouri, taught for two years and then obtained a juris doctor at Syracuse University. His background in political theory lends itself wholeheartedly to the social dynamics of team building which helps the running of a team sport like food service.
