Leadership: 

ChristopherVelona is the CEO of CSG Consulting and Project Sebastian, a local non-profit raising money and awareness for fatal, incurable childhood illnesses in Rare diseases.  

In 2011, Christopher's oldest son, Sebastian, was diagnosed with Batten Disease. Since that time, Christopher has spent ten years creating a presence in the Cannabidiol world to reduce the symptoms Sebastian was experiencing. As a dedicated father that has relentlessly researched and partnered up with some of the most cutting-edge doctors and researchers in the medical field, Christopher has focused his passion on finding a cure for Batten disease. "The key was that I needed to keep discussing all of my fears with different professionals to bring positive thought processes to my situation. Group counseling is very effective in this regard, in all areas." Due to this painful experience, Christopher created CSG Consulting to help families navigate bureaucratic and complicated systems. Christopher has emerged as an expert in assisting families who experience childhood illnesses and using Cannabidiol products to address symptoms related to childhood illnesses and everyday life use. Educating, researching, and consulting with families is a priority that will remain his life's work.

With over 25 years of sobriety, Christopher has demonstrated a willingness and expertise to stay sober and help others achieve sobriety. He has spent the past two decades mastering the psychology of addiction and has researched the best and most advanced techniques to achieve recovery. Christopher has merged his personal and professional experiences, resulting in a consultant with a vast amount of knowledge, and he uses this knowledge to help others in an expedited manner. Christopher has blended research and education effectively and efficiently with childhood illnesses, addiction/recovery, and cannabis products. Through his consultant work, he has helped countless families worldwide cope with childhood illness diagnoses and obtain recovery. 

Before Christopher's work as a consultant, he began his career researching and fundraising to end pancreatic cancer. This experience helped him gain knowledge of the process of treating and eradicating fatal illnesses. After this, Christopher was an account executive in sales with a wine distributor. This work taught Christopher the art of interpersonal skills and how meaningful connections help people heal, grow, and thrive. He also founded and was Vice President of a CBD company and mastered the knowledge of the usage of CBD due to these experiences. Christopher also served as president of operations for a family foundation, focusing on long-term investments, real estate, and start-up companies. His past careers have paved the way for his current and future professional endeavors, resulting in a very skilled and experienced consultant that understands his client's needs.

A new initiative for Christopher is to help families navigate the many challenges presented by the COVID-19 crisis. Christopher acknowledges that our world is experiencing addiction and mental health crises that will worsen in the next several years. Therefore, Christopher is tailoring his services to address the unique needs that families may demonstrate around CSG Consulting's expertise.
