PHILOSOPHY
Christopher believes in hard work, passion, virtue and more apparently creating meaningful writing. Most of us have had profound experiences with storytelling and literature in our lives. Weather it be a movie, television series or a novel, we all can name some piece that we have consumed that has fundamentally changed ourselves as well as our view of the world. It is Christopher’s goal to create this type of effect in everything he does. Whether he’s working on a construction site, in an office or writing his next screenplay, Christopher is determined to put all of himself into his work so that his contribution in some way big or small has an profound and lasting effect on the world.
