Rubén Oscar González (born 26 July 1962) is a four-time Olympian, a professional keynote speaker and a bestselling author.
González took up the sport of luge when he was 21 after being inspired by watching figure skater Scott Hamilton win the gold medal at the 1984 Winter Olympics.

González is a frequent media guest on success principles, peak performance, leadership, change, sales and mental toughness.
