Chris appeared as the lead actor in the production of 'Peter Pan' and the supporting actor in the production of 'Cherry Orchard' and 'Fiddler on the Roof' (both awarded as the best productions of the season).
Recently from working in theatre, Chris transitioned to acting in Films and TV. The short film 'OverPranked' with Chris as a lead actor, won the Special Short Film Jury Award at ShortFest.
