MY STORY

Krist (he/they) was raised in Luquillo, Puerto Rico by a seaside, tumultuous paradise equal parts chaotic and enchanting. From a very young age, film as a storytelling medium was ever present in Krist’s life as he and his siblings ran around making home movies on a handycam. The love grew into a fervent passion in high school, where Krist began writing poetry as well as scripts. After high school, Krist went to Point Park University where he wrote, shot, and directed numerous films before obtaining a Bachelor of Arts in Cinema Arts. Since then, Krist was one of the first Warhol Academy Fellows and worked in freelance videography with companies across the county. Now Krist works as a Social Media and Content Manager for the Pittsburgh Cultural Trust.
