Legends on Legends: Karina Christensen and Andrew Crellin

March 23, 2023

This episode we begin a series we are calling “Legends on Legends''. At Influential U, we have a group that is held in our highest regard and admiration- this group is our Esteemed Alumni. Esteemed Alumni are those who have completed our four-year curriculum in Transactional Competence. The most ambitious of our Esteemed Alumni, our "Green Berets", if you will, study in a program known as Legends. Influential U Legends are often top performers in their fields and have experienced a level of achievement and satisfaction that only comes from years of deliberate practice and study. This program is led in fellowship with co-founders Kirkland Tibbels and John Patterson and this initiative includes a wide range of strategies to advance and expand their own application of Transactional Competence and pave the path in the study of Transactional Leadership. We’re talking about the ELITE of the ELITE entrepreneurs, executives, and consultants.


This week, we are welcoming Karina Christensen and Andrew Crellin to our Legends on Legends Series.

Karina Christensen is a fan favorite of our podcast. She is the Co-Founder of Contigo Ventures Baja, out of Baja, Mexico, by way of Denver, Colorado where she is in the midst of developing high-design condo projects that enhance from the natural beauty of the local mexican environment. She identifies as a Performer personality and hold’s a constructivist’s world view. You’ve seen her on our podcasts before, and she always brings an infectious energy and enthusiasm to everything she touches.


Andrew Crellin is the Managing Director of Sterling and Currency out of Perth, Australia where he works as a numisist, or dealer in rare coins and banknotes. He identifies as a Producer personality and holds an objectivist’s world view. His specialties include the identification, appraisal, and research of Australian rare coins and banknotes and he’s an avid learner and you can find more about his company by going to sterlingcurrency.com.au


Over the course of the next few months, we’ll have special episodes of the Influential U Podcast. I’ll be introducing our two guests and then getting out of the way so that you may experience the expertise and communication between two of our participants. If you listen closely, we believe that you’ll hear a level of Transactional Leadership that is quite novel in day to day conversation.
