Currently a sophomore attending the University of Pennsylvania; Christian, or Chris as he prefers, spends a lot of his time writing, playing video games, and thinking about the universe. His writing centers largely on the concept of male vulnerability and healing, particularly in matters of romance and heartbreak. He is Maori-American, and has recently been exploring what that identity means to him. His first chapbook, entitled “Gunka: A Fox’s Warsong” was published last year, and he hopes to use the many things he’s learned about the poetic craft since then to put forth another book sometime in the next few months.
