Founder Bio

Blake Stine, PharmD, is a licensed pharmacist, U.S. Navy veteran, and lifelong learner. He grew up in Merritt Island, Florida—known as the Space Coast, where rockets and shuttles launch from Kennedy Space Center, the literal starting point of Neil Armstrong’s historic journey to the moon. It was an inspiring place to call home, surrounded by innovation, exploration, and the belief that anything is possible.

After serving aboard the USS Taylor and traveling the world, Blake earned his Doctor of Pharmacy degree from Midwestern University and has since worked across inpatient and community pharmacy settings. He is also a certified scuba diver and skydiver.

Blake’s teaching philosophy is grounded in clarity, curiosity, and community—with a firm belief that real growth happens when people are empowered to take ownership of their journey.

The story behind C3

My experiences in both healthcare and military service introduced me to a remarkable diversity of people—across race, culture, age, religion, and socioeconomic backgrounds. Listening to their stories and facing real-world challenges alongside them opened my eyes to a troubling reality: many are expected to succeed without ever being given the tools, context, or confidence to make informed decisions.

That realization became the driving force behind C3—an education-centered initiative created to equip people with practical skills, self-assurance, and clarity.

“I created C3 to turn the lessons from my journey into support for others as they begin theirs—today, tomorrow, and beyond.”
— Blake Stine, PharmD

“Never stop asking 'why' and always be open to giving new things a try.”
— Blake Stine, PharmD
