Christian earned his Master of Architecture from Drury University along with a minor in fine arts with a focus in film photography. While at Drury, he took three study-abroad trips to Scandinavia, Greece, and China and traveled to 20 countries on three different continents. These experiences helped shape Christian’s beliefs that architecture can fundamentally impact inhabitants’ cognitive abilities, as well as psychological and emotional health, while still being rooted in cultural identity. In his spare time, he enjoys practicing and teaching yoga classes in addition to traveling.
