Chris hails from the Bay Area. In 2015, after a lifelong obsession with film, he uprooted to Los Angeles and dove headfirst into the industry. He's worked his way onto several major studio features for filmmakers like Paul Thomas Anderson and Steven Spielberg and spends his free time writing and directing his own films in the hopes of becoming a definitive visual storyteller.
I wrote "Fish Out of Water" as an allegory for family trauma and substance abuse, sold as a psychological thriller. The characters are manifestations of my inner self and a representation of the everyday people who experience pain, hardship, and loss.
