Charles Harris’s Summary
As of January 2008, I have elected to change careers with the blessing and support of my wife to follow my dream to become a full-time football coach. As with any drastic career change, I and my family have made some concessions. However, it is our hope that in two years time I will be able to step-up and run my own program.
To help supplement my income, I will continue to consult at a part-time level for local businesses and government agencies. Please visit www.CharlesHarris.net for more information.
Prior to 2008, I was the CEO of Astrixs, LLC.; originally founded in 1994 as a business development and technology consulting firm. I had successfully built a client base that spanned the global community with more than 30 clients with a cumulative annual budget of a quarter million dollars to manage projects.
Currently I am the Offensive and Defensive Lines coach for Ravenna High School, a coach for Ravenna Youth Football League and coach at the Edge Sports Performance Academy. I am also the Coaching Director for the Ravenna Youth Football League and have been elected as a three year trustee on the Ravenna GridIron Board.

Prior to coaching at the High School and the Edge Sports Performance Academy, I was a head coach for the Ravenna Youth Football League.

I will continue to be involved at the youth level as the Coaching Director for the Ravenna Youth Football League as well as an assistant coach. In addition I have been nominated and voted in as a three year trustee on the Ravenna GridIron board; so I would assess that I am well on my way to accomplishing my goals.
