Christian Ray Flores, co-founder of Third Drive, brings a world of incredible experiences and insights to the Toolbox table. He was at one time a top-of-the-charts pop singer in Russia and Ukraine. In fact, his song “Our Generation” was utilized by Russians President Boris Yeltsin’s 1996 campaign to mobilize young voters and defeat the Communist party candidate. Despite his success, however, there was still an emptiness to Christian’s life which eventually led him into a life of faith. Now an Austin-based entrepreneur working in both profit and non-profit worlds, Christian brings first-hand insights into the current conflict between Russia and Ukraine.
