About

Meet Christopher

Christopher Holtwick is a jack-of-all trades, when it comes to digital media. With a strong background in art and design, he has worked on projects ranging from motion graphics and web development to painting and caricatures. Christopher has spent a large part of his career hand-building webpages and emails, while creating dynamic graphics, page layouts, and digital ads. His knowledge of the Adobe Creative Suite has allowed him to create layouts for books and posters, record original music, and create 2D character animations.

Christopher was born and raised in a suburb of Cleveland, Ohio, with a do or die work ethic and the grit of a steelworker. His drive and creativity lead him to relocate to San Diego, with nothing but a computer, a guitar, and a laundry basket full of clothes. Over twenty years, he has drawn thousands of caricatures, played in local bands, and worked for small, family-owned businesses, all the way up to Fortune 500 companies. When he isn’t working, his hobbies include world travel, playing synthesizer, and playing mini golf.
