Elie Dufour

Content Creator - Leadership Consultant - Founders Team

Elie was seeped into a diverse and multicultural world from a young age as he was born in France, spent foundational childhood years in Laos, and currently resides in the United States. This notion of a “cultural mut” as Elie labels himself as played a big part into forming his love of the question “Why” as he grew up around many different perspectives and ideas. Elie would spend most of his schooling at home, loving the freedom and flexibility to pursue what interested him during his academics. Elie spent years struggling to discover what he was made to do as he found nothing he was particularly gifted in. Through this struggle and with divine help Elie was able to discover that he has a passionate love for teaching people. Whether it be helping to improve someone’s swimming technique, editing someone’s resume, teaching his students, or helping a friend through personal decisions; Elie thrives in the role of encouraging and empowering people to live out their fullest lives in Christ. When you are not finding Elie in his teaching role, you can find Elie enjoying a movie with an excellent story and character development, standing in awe of clouds, or connecting with the triune in architecturally pleasing places.
