CHRIS NOWINSKI

Concussion Committee, Positive Coaching Alliance National
Advisory Board, and as a consultant to Major League
Lacrosse. He is a Ph.D. candidate in Behavioral
Neuroscience at Boston University School of Medicine.
Chris’ interest in brain trauma stems from personal
experience. An All-Ivy defensive tackle for the Harvard
University football team, after graduation, he began
working for the life sciences consulting firm Trinity Partners,
LLC. While there he decided to explore his passion for
professional wrestling, and enrolled in wrestling school at
night. Eighteen months later, in 2002, he debuted on
WWE’s flagship program Monday Night RAW.
Chris suffered a serious concussion in June, 2003, but due
to a lack of understanding, was not honest about his
symptoms and continued to wrestle and work out for five
weeks while symptomatic. He developed post-concussion
syndrome and was forced to retire. Chris realized that this
lack of awareness among athletes, coaches, and even
medical professionals not only cost him his career, abut also
threatened the health and well-being of athletes of all ages.
