Chris Mosier is a trailblazing athlete, coach, and the founder of TransAthlete.com. In 2020, he made history by becoming the first known transgender athlete to compete in the Olympic Trials in the gender they identify.

​

Prior to that, in 2015, Chris was a catalyst for change in the International Olympic Committee policy on transgender athletes, and in 2016 he became the first trans man to compete against men in a World Championship race.  He has been called "the man who changed the Olympics" by the BBC and New York Magazine. Chris is a five-time Men's National Champion, and a Men's All-American, and an eight-time member of Team USA, representing the United States in the sprint triathlon and the short course and long course duathlon.

​
Chris is also a nationally recognized four-time Ironman triathlete, and inductee into the National Gay and Lesbian Sports Hall of Fame. As a Nike-sponsored athlete, Chris's Nike commercial debuted in prime time in the 2016 Rio Olympics. He has been featured in multiple global campaigns. Chris has been featured in publications including ESPN The Magazine, The New York Times, Wall Street Journal, Rolling Stone, Esquire, and more. 
 
Chris's website transathlete.com is the go-to source for information about transgender athletes in sport. Chris has written and advocated for change in policies from the high school level to national governing bodies and professional leagues. He has become one of the leading grassroots organizers against the current wave of anti-trans legislation across the United States, and when not fighting the good fight, he mentors transgender and non-binary athletes around the world in hopes that he can live by his motto of "be who you needed when you were younger."

​

Chris provides trainings, workshops, keynote speeches, and other speaking services, sharing his powerful story of breaking barriers and his advocacy expertise to inspire attendees.
