Fifteen-year-old Christopher dreams of one day selling his artwork at art shows, having families everywhere displaying his talents. For now, his walls are filled with his creative endeavors.

Equally outgoing and athletic as he is creative, Christopher likes to play basketball with his friends following up with a trip to Dairy Queen to try that month's blizzard flavor.

Christopher is very caring, outgoing, and intelligent which translates to school. Although he enjoys going, he finds he does better in classes where he has a close relationship with the teacher.

Christopher is looking for an active family where he can be the youngest or only child. He admits his school performance is based on his relationship with his teachers and would benefit from a family that can help keep him on track.
