Clint Bell
Clint Bell has been behind a microphone since childhood. While other kids were juggling, twirling batons, or strumming instruments at school talent shows, Clint was the Master of Ceremonies. That early passion for engaging an audience naturally led him to earn a degree in Communication from the University of Colorado Boulder.
Clint’s career as a benefit auctioneer began in 2005 after attending one of the nation’s leading auctioneering schools. Since then, he has helped raise tens of millions of dollars for hundreds of foundations and charities across the country. Beyond the auction stage, Clint is a sought-after presence at national conventions, lending his talents both behind the scenes as a professional voice artist and onstage as a dynamic Emcee.

Offstage, Clint brings extensive experience in outdoor hospitality and operations. His background in management has sharpened his understanding of customer expectations
and exceptional guest experiences.

Christian Labertew
Christian Labertew began working as an auctioneer after the COVID pandemic had left many of the non-profits he grew up working with in financial turmoil. His early life was spent in Park City, Utah, where he worked to raise money and promote the Youth Theatre programs across Utah.
Christian graduated Magna Cum Laude from the University of Southern California with degrees in Theatre and Sport’s Media Studies. During his time at USC, he continued his work with non-profits by serving as the philanthropy chair in multiple student groups on campus and working in the office of the president for events like convocation and commencement.
