He was first discovered by Nance Management at the age of seven in a Paul Dean Martin Children's Theatre production of "Charlie and the Chocolate Factory" where he played Charlie and later made his television debut on his favorite Children's TV show "The Kidsongs Television Show" for the PBS network where he played the writer.

Christopher attended the College of Southern Nevada and later traveled to England to fulfill his purpose in empowering youth. He graduated from Richmond, The American International University in London with a BA in Communications and minor in Sociology. He worked with the educational program 'Keeping Kids Fit' at Vegas PBS, developed skills in on-air promotions marketing with Comcast Networks' E! Entertainment and Style and gained agency experience with the Conventions department at Eastridge Workforce Solutions. While sitting in a cubicle, he felt compelled to act and studied with Jeremiah Comey and Tom Todoroff in Los Angeles. Inspired by actor Gael Garcia Bernal, Christopher set out to learn on the same training ground as Bernal by returning to England to study at The Royal Central School of Speech and Drama, University of London where he graduated with an MA in Music Theatre. Christopher made his television breakthrough on Showtime Network's 'Shameless' in a scene where he shared his first on-screen kiss with William H. Macy.
