Christopher Luna

Raised in a family business, Christopher Luna brings a lifelong understanding of entrepreneurship, leadership, and community responsibility. He is driven by a deep commitment to giving back and inspiring the next generation of entrepreneurs and civic leaders across California.

Christopher’s family has been part of the Mexican product industry since 1982, with his parents among the early pioneers of importing and distributing Hispanic products throughout the United States. This foundation shaped his understanding of entrepreneurship, responsibility, and long term growth.

Building on that experience, Christopher launched a successful career in banking and insurance, holding roles at State Farm Insurance, Farmers Insurance, Wells Fargo, and JPMorgan Chase. Alongside his wife, he helped grow the family business before ultimately selling it to pursue a broader mission focused on supporting and advocating for businesses and communities statewide.

While earning his Master of Business Administration, Christopher served as Vice President of Strategic Partnerships at the Los Angeles Area Chamber of Commerce. In this role, he built meaningful relationships with corporations, nonprofits, and community leaders while advancing initiatives that promoted economic growth and lasting community impact.

Today, Christopher is the Publisher and CEO of California Leaders, a multimedia platform that includes a magazine, podcast, and leadership experiences dedicated to spotlighting the people shaping California’s future. Through long form storytelling and curated conversations, California Leaders highlights leadership journeys that go beyond titles and recognition, focusing on the values, resilience, and service behind the work.

He serves on the boards of the American Red Cross and Maryvale, one of Los Angeles’ oldest Catholic children and family organizations, and was appointed by Los Angeles County Supervisor Hilda L. Solis to sit on the Fiscal Oversight Advisory Committee for Measure PH under the Puente Hills Habitat Preservation Authority. His work supports initiatives tied to disaster preparedness, community resilience, youth development, habitat preservation, and strengthening families and communities across California. Above all, he is driven by a desire to leave a meaningful legacy rooted in leadership, integrity, and service for his two sons and daughter.
