Chris Field
Chris Field has been challenging complacency and disrupting the status quo most of his life. His most important disruption is Mercy Project, the non-profit he started to rescue children from human trafficking in Ghana, Africa. Its innovative approach has drawn international attention. To date, Mercy Project has rescued more than 160 children, returned them to their families, and provided them with an education that will transform their future. At 19-years-old Chris ran his first marathon, ran for mayor of his hometown, and was hired to run a camp that hosted 600 inner-city kids each summer. If disruption was a stick of dynamite, his spark had officially been lit. Chris filled the years 19 to 37 with countless more disruptions. He ran 20 more marathons, started the No.1-ranked marathon in Texas, raised millions for charities, wrote the most viral ice cream review ever, set four Guinness World Records, and has consulted more than 100 businesses.
