About
Dr. Chris Brooks is a Doctor of Theology who approaches venture capital through the lens of biblical economic justice, treating investment as a tool for human flourishing in communities of color rather than purely financial return, and describing his work as obedience to a spiritual calling. He brings a highly non-linear background—including roles as a juvenile corrections officer, public school system worker, national nonprofit leader, and Fortune 500 consultant—combined with theological training rooted in non-Western Christian thought and dense global economics study, positioning him to build what he calls new economies of scale owned by communities of color.
