Anthony Christopher B'18 Alumni Spotlight
Share a little about yourself since you graduated from Bellarmine.
I’ve worked in various roles across the tech industry from software engineering and technical sales to project management. Each experience has helped me develop a deeper understanding of both the technical and business sides of the industry. That balance has allowed me to grow from behind the scenes roles into more front-facing, relationship-driven positions. My interest in technology began at Bellarmine during my AP Computer Science course, and since then, I’ve enjoyed exploring different fields that focus on solving problems through technical solutions.
How did your experience at Bellarmine shape who you are today?
Bellarmine had a significant impact on who I am today. It exposed me to professionalism, leadership, and faith at a young age, things I wasn’t always surrounded by growing up. From ASB and business club meetings to conversations with teachers and parents, I learned how to carry myself with integrity and confidence. Most importantly, Bellarmine taught me to keep God first and to lead with character and kindness. Those values have stayed with me and guided me throughout my personal and professional life.
Were there any teachers, coaches, or mentors who had a significant impact on you?
Definitely. My football coaches Coach Larson, Coach Jensen, Coach Shaw, and Coach Ainsley, played a huge role in my development. They held me accountable and didn’t let me make excuses, but they also showed grace when needed. That combination of tough love and support helped shape me into a leader focused on serving others and staying humble, while still being competitive and driven.
Can you share how cura personalis (care for the whole person) was modeled for you as a student?
Father Jerry truly embodied cura personalis. He cared deeply for every student he encountered, including me. I never felt judged by him only seen, supported, and encouraged. His guidance, his presence, and the way he lived out his faith left a lasting impression on me. He helped me see what it looks like to care for the whole person spiritually, emotionally, and intellectually. May he rest in peace.
Did you participate in any service opportunities or immersion experiences at Bellarmine? How did they impact you?
Yes, I took part in several programs that served the homeless and underserved communities. Those experiences helped me grow in empathy and taught me to treat everyone with dignity and respect. Serving others no longer felt awkward or performative, it felt natural and necessary. That mindset has stuck with me, and I still try to give back whenever I can.
What lessons from your time at Bellarmine have stuck with you?
Two core lessons have stayed with me: accountability and faith. Bellarmine taught me how to take ownership of my choices and be responsible for my growth, both as a person and a professional. It also showed me the importance of
trusting God through every season of life. Being a person of faith and character isn’t just admirable, it’s a strength.
What accomplishments are you most proud of since graduating from Bellarmine?
Graduating from college and earning multiple job offers in tech were big milestones for me. I’m proud of building a career with a Global 1000 company and continuing to grow in a fast-paced industry. On the athletic side, being named 1st Team All-Conference as a right tackle at Whitworth was a major achievement that came from years of hard work and discipline.
What does being a Bellarmine alum mean to you now?
It means being part of something bigger than yourself. The Bellarmine network is filled with incredible people, leaders, professionals, and change-makers. The energy at alumni events is always positive and genuine. I’m grateful for my experience and see its value more and more as I continue to grow in my life and career
What advice would you give current students about living out Jesuit values beyond high school?
Let your values guide your actions. Be someone who leads with empathy, serves others, and holds themselves to a high standard, not just when it’s easy, but especially when it’s hard. That’s what it means to truly live out Jesuit values in the real world.
How do you keep the spirit of Ignatian reflection and discernment alive in your life?
I try to pause often, especially during transitions or big decisions. Whether it’s through prayer, journaling, or surrounding myself with people who challenge and encourage me, I make it a priority to reflect on where I’m going and why. That mindset helps keep me grounded and aligned with who I want to be.
