About Christofer - Executive Producer

Christofer Nelson is a leader in the areas of strategic direction, professional development, leadership programs and event production, working in the public, private and non-profit sectors.

Christofer is the Executive Producer for C3 Programs LLC where he works with clients who are seeking to engage their constituents, employees or the public  through innovative programming.  Christofer's major recent clients include Opportunity Green—an organization that serves businesses committed to sustainability—and the X PRIZE Foundation—a nonprofit that executes large incentive competitions to drive radical innovation.

Additionally, Christofer heads the strategic planning, program design and development, as well as marketing in his role as Director of Programs for the Impact Center—a national nonprofit that brings accomplished leaders together with the next generation to share their talents and experience in order to empower emerging leaders with the knowledge skills and network they need to have a greater societal impact.

In this role with the Impact Center, Christofer helps to manage the Obama Administration's Presidential Appointee Leadership Program, which is designed to help top appointees more effectively collaborate to advance the Administration's priorities and serve the American people. Christofer’s most recent work with the Impact Center includes the design and launch of the Pathways to Power—a program designed to help leaders traditionally disenfranchised communities ascend along their pathway in order to more fully reflect the diversity of our society at the highest levels of public and private leadership.  The two most successful elements of this program have been an annual Fellowship for Women Leaders and an annual Women's Leadership Conference.

Christofer graduated Cum Laude with a Bachelor of Arts in Political Science from The American University (AU) in Washington, DC.  Previously, Christofer studied at Seattle University where he focused on business, marketing, and theology.
