Chris was born in Youngstown, Ohio, but has spent most of his life in the Chicago area. A lifelong fan of reading, he wrote his first story at the age of eleven, titled “The Life of a Grasshopper’s Tennis Shoe.” It was a task given to him by a teacher as punishment for his inability to pay attention in class. He embraced the assignment, however, and filled an entire spiral notebook with a tale full of the antics of the grasshopper community. Chris pursued advanced writing at the college level, but subpar grades and a lack of attention to the fundamentals led one of his professors to tell him that he would never make it as a writer. He took the advice to heart and pursued a career in computer software, where he found success. Then, on July 6, 2006, his life was forever changed when he was tested and diagnosed with attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD). While there is no cure for ADHD, he was given a treatment plan to help manage the symptoms, which enabled him to pursue writing once again. In 2008, he published his first novel, The Dharma Revelation, which received critical acclaim and favorable independent reviews. In 2010, he began writing a nonfiction piece on ADHD awareness but soon realized that the best way to tell his story was in novel form. Thus, The Angriest Angel was born. The Angriest Angel was a semifinalist in the “Soon to Be Famous Illinois Author Project” competition and received a Kirkus Starred Review—one of the rarest and most coveted honors in the literary community.
