Hi, I'm Christian.

I currently run C8 Studios, a mobile app venture studio. Previously, I built Risen, a Bible app for Christians, and scaled it to a few thousand downloads. Now I'm focused on building and scaling new apps within my venture studio's portfolio to hundreds of thousands of downloads and beyond.

I love everything software and startups. I currently reside in Lusaka, Zambia but I spend a lot of time in South Africa, namely Sandton and Cape Town.
