Description

Chris Allport lives in perpetual LA sunlight but his writing explores the shades of grey found in his hometown of Portland, OR. Chris writes high-concept pieces that treat whimsical premises with utmost seriousness and focus on the exploration and meaning of happiness.

His battles with depression and addiction forms foundations for his character-driven narratives that explore self-restrictive belief systems that often leave out the nuances of what makes life beautiful.

In 2018 Chris wrote, produced and shot a comedy rap music video album under his moniker Chris a.k.a "Steve." The project, called "Anxious Rapper," brought the conversation on anxiety and mental health into the mainstream through comedy rap. It got picked up by outlets like George Takei, Mashable, Forbes, The Independent, Medium, and more - racking millions of views across social media.
