Christian Catron: Healthcare to Wealthcare
Christian has no idea what West Point was until his senior year in high school. When he learned about its academic rigor, the opportunity to blow things up over the summer, the ability to play Division I football, and having a guaranteed job lined up after graduation he was sold.
Christian was mentally prepared for the rigors of West Point and came with desire and a sense of urgency to take advantage of this opportunity. Christian would suffer physical setbacks at West Point while on the Football team and on the Handball team that impact his time at West Point and his future as an officer.
Christian took each setback, as an opportunity to pivot in a new direction. Continuing to compete, and to build his skills and his network.
Christian would graduate West Point and commission as an Artillery Officer, but was unable to recover from the damage his body had endured.
Christian medically separated from military, but was so impressed with the care he had received that he was inspired to enter the medical industry.
Christian would stay in the medical industry for almost 20 years, before recently starting his own company and pivoting from healthcare to wealthcare.
This is his story.
