*taps mic* is this thing on?

Uh, hello? Hello? Hello, everyone in steemit land. I just got my account approved today! So that's cool. The name is Christian, but you can call me Chris.
I live in New Mexico, which /is/ part of the United States, contrary to popular belief (guess how often I have been told my English is really good. Go on, guess. No? OK, moving on.)
I have been a creator probably since the first time I picked up a crayon. I write, paint, sing, act (though that hasn't happened in a hot minute), do drag and burlesque, do YouTube videos and podcasts, sew, make jewelry... you name it, I have probably tried it at least once.
I am also a huge nerd with an opinion about everything from history to gaming consoles to deconstructing the patriarchal concept of gender roles. I hope through steemit I can create engaging and fun content that makes people think. Catch y'all on the flipside!
