Brief Biography

Christopher E. Powell

Mathematician | Entrepreneur | Motivational Speaker

Christopher Powell is a mathematician, businessman, and motivational speaker. He is also living with cerebral palsy. Despite his condition, Christopher is living his dream. He is President of Reaching New Heights, LLC and Math Tutoring Experts, LLC. In addition, Chris serves as the Coordinator of the Mathematics Learning Center at Montgomery College, where he inspires students to reach beyond their limits. Chris is the perfect example of what being extraordinary is about — personal triumph, overcoming challenges, turning negatives into positives, and helping others.

For many years Christopher was completely dependent upon others in every aspect of life, but having a disability hasn’t prevented him from achieving “the extraordinary.” Living with cerebral palsy has helped Christopher find multiple solutions to problems. Without the use of his hands, attending college was a major feat. After nine long years he received a bachelor’s degree in mathematics. The experience provided him with the confidence to forge ahead and to excel in other achievements including business.
