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.

Director Statement

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.
