BIOGRAPHY
Christian was born in December 1973 in Crawley West Sussex, where he was raised for 12 years before his parents moved to Altrincham - Cheshire where he attended Wellington Road School for Boys. Being the only southerner in a Manchester all boys school presented a unique challenge to Christian and he had to toughen up quick. He started taking Karate lessons, then Aikido, Kickboxing and finally Boxing. Needless to say his school life became a lot easier.
A few years later his parents moved again, this time to Eastbourne, where he finished his school education at the local Sixth Form college, gaining many GCSE's and three A ' Levels. Christian always kept his foot in the door with the school plays, playing many lead roles. At the age of 18 he was interested in serving in the Military and applied to the RAF and the Royal Navy to become a pilot. They both sent him on intense aptitude courses and he was the only person in the country that year to pass both courses. He completed a light aircraft flying scholarship with the RAF and a helicopter course with the Royal Navy.
At this point he was 19 and decided that University was the way to go and headed for Southampton. He financed his 3 year degree in Business and Finance which he passed with honours by being a Doorman and Bouncer in the cities Bars and Night Clubs. During his studies at Southampton he also worked security for Prince Naseem Hamed the World Champion Boxer and The Rolling Stones.
Christian passed out with honours and returned home to Eastbourne and worked as a Stonemason before joining the Territorial Army full time, where he served 3 years full time as a soldier with the Royal Signals Regiment.
Upon returning to civilian life, Christian started his own Stonemason company and moved to North Wales, where he still has a home.
A few months after the move Christian was involved in a near fatal accident and whilst recovering in Hospital he decided that now was the time to pursue his career as an actor. Christian then spent the next 3 years studying acting.
While studying he gained a wealth of experience in a variety of roles, playing up to five different characters in one shakespeare play. During his training Christian performed in over 220 professional shows all across England and Wales. (A breakdown of the dates and venues is below ). And since has appeared in a music video and four films
