My name is Chris and I’m a senior at San Francisco State University majoring in web and graphic design.

My background is mainly in music.

I write, record, and sing in my own band called
the Midnight Strangers.

My main goal is to become a full-time musician.

I'm inspired and influenced by rock bands like U2, the Killers, and Kasabian, all bands I love who are doing what I hope to be doing some day.

My vision or hope is to graduate from SFSU and use the skills I've learned to help me find a job related to web, graphic design, and music.
