“We are all worthy of telling our stories and having them heard. We all need to be seen and honored in the same way that we all need to breathe.”
– Viola Davis
About Chris
Whether it’s an animated short or children’s series, a special to pledge to vote, or growing the next generation of creative rebels, I am an Emmy-award-winning producer that believes in the power of asking the right questions to bring a story to life. With over 20 years of experience, I am quite the jill of all trades as my career spans public and network television, animation and live-action production, studio management, and entrepreneurship. I bring all of these skills and experiences to my approach in creating content for all types of clients, either as a Producer or Consultant. As the former VP of Production and executive leader at Adult Swim (Warner Bros Discovery), my project highlights include lead producer on all Rick and Morty custom content, Executive Producer of a live-action music special for Run The Jewels and Ben & Jerry’s, Associate Producer for the anime series FLCL and the founder of the Adult Swim Collective – an initiative to increase diversity and representation for On-Air packaging elements. During my tenure at Adult Swim, I grew into the mentoring space and took active roles in pro-social initiatives, both of which continue today in my production company, Angelfish Productions.
As Executive Producer, Producer or Consultant, my priorities are intentional storytelling and giving back to the community. I have created stories for Rebel Girls, Georgia Public Broadcasting, SCADPro, Cobb Collaborative and the YMCA of Metro Atlanta. I also serve as a Board Member for the YMCA.
