Hey
Chris is an award-winning Senior Art Director at Amazon XCM Cross Channel, Cross-Category Marketing in Los Angeles working on global ad campaigns.
Various list of interests in no particular order: a just one video game involving assassins, plotting novels you’ll never read (sorry), sewing to become a tailor, eating fried chicken, the color yellow, playing the violin, and woodworking.
