Meet our Founder & Course Creator

I’m Chris, “I help entrepreneurs hack the startup process.”

I'm the Founder of The Startup Easy Button, a startup loan accelerator that helps entrepreneurs start a business and get funding as quickly as possible.

I've had the honor of co-facilitating a startup course at one of the top colleges in the world, Columbia University in New York City. I also provided small business loans and taught cutting-edge entrepreneurial strategies while serving as the Director of a Community Development Financial Institution. I've also practiced what I preach by raising funds for my own ventures, so I know which strategies are the most effective.

My insight into startup capital comes from working at the Small Business Administration (SBA), a major funding source for lenders. At the SBA, I was privy to the processes for approving and denying a variety of business loans. I also worked within the SBA’s venture capital division.

 Why I Created The Program

I created this program because I don’t like seeing people feel stuck doing work they hate. This includes not only people from the C-suite who are tired of the high-pressured rat race but also people who just want a better life.

I believe entrepreneurship is one of the best career choices out there. It provides unlimited opportunities. It allows you to do work that is inspiring and intriguing. It gives you an opportunity to do something you find meaningful and rewarding. It also allows you to take control of your daily schedule.

I want others to see the limitless possibilities of entrepreneurship, so I decided to create a program using my insights to help students create work they enjoy and in the process improve their emotional well-being. 

Having worked in the small business industry for over two decades, I realized that I had amassed a lot of insider secrets that few people know, including choosing the best methodologies for starting a business and which lenders are best for securing startup funding. So I packaged this information into a program that can be completed in four weeks.
