CURRENT MISSION

Saving the world in a bureaucratic way

ABOUT ME

A true Renaissance Man, Chris is worshipped as a god of fertility and agriculture by the Tiki-Tiki people of New Guinea. He has invented electricity, the wheel and the concept of inventing itself. In the year 2006, he completed the so-called 'Grand Slam of Humanity' by winning every Nobel Prize. He is love, and has a preternatural obsession with animals of the genius "Sus".

PHILOSOPHY

Never be afraid to be the but of someone else's joke; and don't avoid doing or saying something because of you worry what other people think.

Push yourself to the limits, so you know what you are capable of - there is nothing worse than wasted talent.

And always make fun of yourself.
