Chris received his first taste of fame when he portrayed the Mad Hatter in his fourth grade production of “Alice Through the Looking Glass.” “I won the best actor award that was usually won by sixth graders,” Chris says. He perfomed with local theatre company Roger Rocka’s Dinner Theater throughout sixth grade and acted in his high school’s (Roosevelt School of the Arts) plays. After high school he attended UCLA and earned his BA in film and theatre arts.
