Christopher's life took a significant turn when he relocated from Germany and Italy to Atlanta, Georgia in 1990, along with his twin brother and family. This marked the beginning of a new chapter in his life, one that would ultimately lead him to excel in the world of fencing and acting.
During his time in Atlanta, Christopher discovered his passion for the sport of fencing, and his skills in the sport earned him a spot on the United States National Fencing team. This newfound talent, combined with his early start in acting, laid the foundation for a successful career in the entertainment industry.
Christopher's acting career began in high school, where he starred in various productions, including Man of La Mancha and Amadeus. His portrayal of Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart in Amadeus earned him national recognition at the 2000 International Thespian conference, where he won the award for Best Lead Actor in a Drama.
After completing high school, Christopher attended Emory University, where he graduated with honors and earned a bachelor's degree in Theatre Studies. Following his graduation, he continued to hone his craft by studying voice with the Atlanta Opera and starring in David Bell's adaptation of A Christmas Carol at the Tony Award-winning Alliance Theatre Company.
Christopher's guest appearances on TV shows such as Dawson's Creek and Listen Up further solidified his reputation as a talented actor. He eventually transitioned to film, starring in the Cinequest Film Festival's The Last Known Documentary in 2004. More recently, he appeared alongside his twin brother in David Fincher's epic romance The Curious Case of Benjamin Button, starring Brad Pitt and Cate Blanchett.
