Chris DT Gordon

Chris combines his many years of middle school in-person and online teaching experience, his insight gained from surviving necrotizing fasciitis (the excruciating trails, the exhilarating triumphs, and everything in-between), and his unique way to connect with pre-teens and teenagers to craft a presentation that inspires students to appreciate their presents and forge their futures.

Lying in a hospital bed, vulnerable and (literally) raw, Chris still knew that he mattered to others and he could impact others' lives. Pre-teens and teenagers may not be suffering physically, but they often feel vulnerable to external and internal attacks, yet they lack the experience to work through them. Chris helps those future leaders create the positive foundations they need to become the heroes we will need them to be (without secret identities).
