Curtis Walls was born and raised in Charlotte, North Carolina. He attended North Carolina Agricultural and Technical State University as a standout student-athlete majoring in Landscape Architecture. Upon graduation he worked for Design Workshop in Aspen, Colorado as a Project Landscape Architect.

Shortly after moving to Aspen, Curtis was laid off due to the 2008 recession. Post college adversities placed him in a position to diversify his experience and portfolio in order to survive. He played professional football, co-founded a non-profit, founded a marketing, production and entertainment company, joined NASCAR and started his own gym. His experience over the decade has qualified him to consult with small businesses, corporations, non-profits and charter schools, as well as, become a top sports performance coach in professional sports and training elite/professional athletes.

Curtis serves on diverse non-profit boards and enjoys the process of inspiring and empowering people, businesses and organizations to build strong winning cultures, processes and experiences. Curtis Walls currently resides in Charlotte, North Carolina with his two beautiful children – CJ & Zara.
