Todd was born on June 19, 1964 to Winn LaMarr Christensen and Ina Claire Theobald who lived in Shelley, Idaho. He spent his entire young life in Shelley, as his parents’ youngest of six children. Todd was happy and talented throughout his life. He was very musically talented and loved singing and playing the piano. Todd spent many, many hours on the farm with his Dad working the fields and managing the sprinklers.

In high school he was in the Shellaires for three years. Mr. Stirland was his mentor. When he eventually was accepted to BYU he was a BYU Cheerleader. He graduated with his Masters degree in Accounting and Information Systems Consulting. He served a mission to California.

After graduation, Todd moved to work in Washington, DC. He became a creative and innovative IT professional, helping organizations utilize technology effectively.
