ABOUT ME

IMG_0648.JPG

Born right in Manhattan at Columbia Presbyterian Hospital (where his grandfather worked as a doctor) the night of the Superbowl where Miss Whitney Houston sang the National Anthem, Chris grew up in the Connnecticut suburbs of NYC in Westport, CT. He started theatre at an early age, and his grandparents spoiled him and took him to see many Broadway shows growing up.

He pursued theatre in middle and high school, and eventually went on to earn a BFA in Music Theatre from Elon University. Soon after, he was performing in national tours and at regional theaters all across the country. He most notably was on the National Tour of Irving Berlin's White Christmas for four seasons, featuring Randy Skinner's original Broadway choreography.

Chris continues to perform, and he is also a director/choreographer. He has choreographed for Disney Theatrical, Applause NY, Music Theatre of CT, Cape Cod Theatre Company, The Prizery, and more. Chris is also a video editor for Unreel Films and has a 99% escape room record.
