Originally from Rhode Island, Chris can tell you more facts than just about anyone about the smallest state in the country. He’s got a lot of pride in where he’s from as well as he Irish and Azorean heritages. He’s also French-Canadian on both sides of his family. Chris grew up playing ice hockey from ages four to fifteen and has played in adult leagues in LA since 2019. He was also drawn to performing at a young age, acting in school plays, learning piano and guitar, and writing and and recording short sketches on a toy tape-recorder.

Chris has over a decade of acting experience that includes work in TV, film, on stage, and on the web.

In 2018 Chris co-founded Trivia LA, a live trivia entertainment company and he hosts multiple pub-quiz style trivia games at bars and pubs around LA each week. Chris’ love of trivia began with playing, grew into hosting, and has even grown to competing on TV trivia game shows—he appears in the first season of the new Game Show Network series, Best Ever Trivia Show, hosted by Sherri Shepherd and featuring Ken Jennings!

Chris is a vegetarian who doesn’t mind if you aren’t one too, he loves pizza, beer, and cooking for himself at home, and dreams of the day he’ll be able to have a pet ferret again! He’s also a pretty massive nerd who loves reading Sci-fi and fantasy novels, and loves playing deceptively simple video games and way-too-complicated tabletop games.

Finally, and most importantly, Chris believes deeply in economic and social justice, constantly learning about and promoting important work in these areas.
