Ray Christopher, Jr.
Chief Executive Officer (CEO)

Ray is a VERY high energy person who loves to come up with new ideas and spend time with his family. If you have an idea he is the person to talk to as he will go through sleepless nights to make it reality. When he isn’t working with us, you can find him golfing or playing some random game with his son Tyler, who somehow has more energy than him. We don’t know how you do it Kristen, but keep up the good work. – If you have any questions concerning TexTivia, contact him today – @rchristopherjr or email

David Christopher
Chief Financial Officer (CFO)

With a passion for travel, food and entrepreneurism, Dave is always on the move, observing and thinking. He is constantly looking for the next new place to explore, great dish to eat or idea to nurture to fruition. His main vision in creating TexTivia was to give people an opportunity to win prizes no matter where they are. Being able to win while waiting for class to start, eating lunch, out on an awful date or during 9 hours of intense labor seemed impossible until now. That’s the vision that has fueled Dave’s drive in continuing to make TexTivia the ultimate experience for everyone to enjoy and ultimately turning a phone into a moving lottery ticket – If you have any questions concerning TexTivia, contact him today – email

Chris Baumgarden
Chief Operating Officer (COO)

Chris is a guy who really wants to do everything. While working at another company, Chris and Justin would talk for hours at a time about inventing something to help small businesses. With a business plan written on napkins during lunch time, the general “idea” for Textivia has been in motion since 2008. Chris moved away and he and Justin always were waiting for the best time to bring back their idea. It just so happened that a small conversation with Dave about a texting game got Chris back to the drawing board and a lot of the fundamental ideas behind Textivia have come off of those same napkins. Chris is very customer service orientated and aims to make each customer happy. – If you have any questions concerning TexTivia, contact him today – email

Justin Cooley
Executive Development Director

You’d be surprised, but Justin is more known for his computer smarts than his “Boy Next Door” looks. Justin is a Graduate of Clemson University. Justin and Chris formed together years ago to create a small business marketing system, after bumping into Ray and Dave, he refined the system that was built with Chris and TexTivia was born. Working with the whole team, Justin has helped create the way TexTivia works. Our database was built by him from the ground up and he has literally spent hundreds of hours making it perfect. Justin is commonly known around the office as a guy that believes anything is possible. Without Justin’s hard work this product, which there’s nothing like it, would not be created.

Kirk A. Sporman
Executive Creative Director

There is nothing better than a designer who loves his work. Kirk has been in the graphic’s design field for over 11 years, and his passion for design has only grown over the years. After high school, Kirk got a degree in Visual Communications in order to have an outlet to express his ideas. Websites are his primary focus for TexTivia, but as the world grows more tech savy, Kirk has expanded his design to Custom Branded Facebook pages, Facebook Applications, Custom Application Design, Social Media Marketing & Web Design. If you have any questions concerning the design, look & feel or the overall plan of TexTivia, contact him today – @sporman_ or email
