Christopher Leonard serves as Chief Operating Officer and General Counsel for My Rewards. He is responsible for many of the day-to-day operations of the company, including oversight of nationwide fulfillment and distribution, human resources, contract negotiations, insurance, finance, real estate and the company’s intellectual property portfolio.
Prior to joining the company in 2005, Christopher was a corporate and tax partner with Wilmington, North Carolina's largest law firm, where he worked with privately and publicly held corporations in various transactional, compliance and advisory capacities. He also served as counsel to My Rewards advising on, among other things, regulatory and tax issues relating to rewards programs in the banking and health insurance industries.
Christopher received his Bachelor of Arts and Juris Doctor degrees from Wake Forest University. He is chairman of the Foundation for the Community Boys & Girls Club, a member of the Board of Visitors of the Wake Forest University Divinity School, and was a founding director of the St. James Parish Foundation where he currently serves as Vice President.
Christopher lives in Wilmington with his wife, Laura, their two young children, and an outrageously affectionate Shetland Sheepdog. In his limited free time, he builds furniture, plays piano, enjoys Kentucky Straight Bourbon Whiskey, goes boating with his family, and flies his Cessna Skylane, although not necessarily all at the same time. |
