Chris Geib is the Chief Development Officer at the National Pediatric Cancer Foundation (NPCF). In this episode of Press Play, Chris opens up about life with teenagers and a newborn, his love for barbecue (including epic “dino ribs”), fishing trips, Jaguars fandom, and why writing has become another creative outlet.
But the heart of the conversation is Chris’s work at NPCF—fueling research to create less toxic, more targeted treatments for kids battling cancer. From fishing tournaments to record-breaking boating challenges, Chris shares how community, creativity, and purpose keep him moving forward.
