He became the learner in residence at the Uncollege Guided Gap Year Program, where he created Designing Your Year. This journey led him to Mike, and he found his calling as a men’s coach. Chris lives in San Francisco with his fiance, Anna, and loves helping men live their life from the inside out like he has.

Glenn was born in 1991 in Richmond, Virginia, to Glenn and Sylvia Diersen.  He was raised in Richmond and attended James Madison University in Harrisonburg, Virginia where he found his passion for our increasingly globalized world and thus obtained two degrees with a global studies focus – a BBA in International Business and a BA in Spanish.

After becoming the number one producer among over 200 hundred in his prior life and being tapped on the shoulder to be the National Director of Government Services, Glenn could not ignore the deep-seated feeling that he was meant to do something bigger with his life.

Being a lifelong entrepreneur, Glenn launched Summit Human Capital in April of 2018, a company focused in IT Human Capital Solutions dedicated to positively changing lives through building deep and profound relationships. After growing over 2,000% the first two years in business, Glenn is committed to sustaining this growth and building Summit Human Capital to becoming a global force in the IT Human Capital community.

Glenn is married to Nina Diersen and they reside in the midst of the highly energetic Scott’s Addition region of Richmond, Virginia. Glenn is dedicated to supporting our future leaders in the workforce and thus serves as a current Member of the Board for the International Business Advisory Board at James Madison University and as a Member of the Strategic Advisory Council (SAC) at Randolph-Macon College.
