Christopher is an artsy teen who dreams of one day selling his paintings and drawings at art shows. His walls are covered in his work and he enjoys sharing his creations with others.

Equally outgoing and athletic as he is creative, Christopher enjoys playing basketball with his friends followed up by a trip to Dairy Queen to try out the latest monthly blizzard flavor.

Christopher enjoys going to school and says that math is his favorite subject. He admits his relationships with his teachers make a difference in how well he does in that class, but he is a kind and hardworking freshman who is doing his best.

Christopher is looking for a family where he can be the youngest or only child and would like parents who keep him active and involved with both the arts and sports.
