Chris grew up inventing, taking things apart and fixing them. Having moved with his family to spend part of high school in Uruguay expanded his perspective and experiences. Hoping to one day teach he pursued and completed a Bachelor of Science degree in Mathematics from Montclair State University to become a math teacher. His goals led him to continue his education in Mechanical Engineering at NJIT which was more along his passions and progressing towards a new path & goal of owning his own business.

After taking an opportunity to learn business entrepreneurship through starting a personal financial fitness education company with his brother Jon Steingraber he started to learn about business development. He also became an active partner with his brother in the real estate investors member group the New Jersey Real Estate Social Network (NJRESN). Always wearing many hats and with passion in the technical and creative he went on to start his own media production company with previous co-worker Joseph Kessler. For six years this business has been a lean and successful company continually progressing in deliverables, projects and it's technology with works aired on TV and and spanning stories, documentaries, short films, commercials, infomercials, and social media productions.

His skills in business development, cinematography & filmmaking, hands-on abilities, and resources within the real estate industry are attributes that he brings to the table as well as being an future educator in the film school to be operated right after school at the cinema.
