Guest Bio
Charles Fernandez is a professional Guatemalan Olympic athlete who represented Guatemala at the 2016 Rio de Janeiro Olympics in Brazil and the 2020 Tokyo Olympics in Japan in the sport of modern pentathlon. Charles recently announced his retirement from professional sports after a 15-year career. Following a successful career as a world champion, 2-time Pan-American Games gold medalist, multiple world medalist, and being one of the best athletes in the history of Guatemala and his sport, Charles now dedicates himself to his business ventures as a human performance coach and strategic consultant. Additionally, he works as an advocate for an organization fighting against human trafficking and sex trafficking worldwide.
Charles grew up in Guatemala as a missionary kid with his two siblings and parents, who run their own nonprofit organization, aiding those living in extreme poverty without proper education, food, resources, and living conditions and enabling a better future for the Guatemalan people and generations to come. Growing up as a missionary kid has given Charles a unique insight into life, purpose, and faith, allowing him to translate those values into a driving force that would later propel him into his professional athletic career.
Apart from being an Olympic athlete and human performance strategist, Charles graduated with a degree in economics and executive leadership. Leveraging his dynamic background as a 2-time Olympic athlete, motivational speaker, and servant leader, he translates altruistic vision into strategic action plans, inspiring others to follow.
