Christa Chambers-Price

Chief Marketing Officer

Christa is a military intelligence Army National Guard veteran and a former FBI Fingerprint analyst. For over 25 years, she has led teams, large and small, to transform their products into brands. Her mantra is that "Customers buy products, but trust brands." Her work involves guiding founders to discover why they exist and for whom, craft their 'secret sauce', and build the right strategies and narratives to own whatever room they find themselves.

Christa was a founder of Entre-SLAM, an storytelling and entertainment series, where underrepresented entrepreneurs stood center stage to share stories of struggle, triumph, and tenacity. This popular series grew from Ann Arbor to Detroit and expanded into Chicago and Memphis. Christa also built and developed a national business accelerator for the American Heart Association. She recruited, trained, and helped lift tech and social impact founders of color and HBCU student innovators to national stages.

Alumnae of her work has gone on to be a Top 10 Finalist for the celebrity-studded CNN's Hero's Celebration and recognized by major media outlets like Forbes and Fast Company. Within four years of launch, grants for the accelerator grew 1400%. She is the author of The Brand Storybook: Everything an Innovator Needs to Know to Discover Their Voice, Own it, and Move the World. Christa is a member of the United Nations Educational Scientific and Cultural Organization Creative Cities network, an initiative that has identified the critical need to include innovation, design and creativity as a strategic factor for sustainable urban development. Originally from Virginia, Christa received her Bachelor's degree from The University of Michigan.
