Steven Christian

Born and raised in Sacramento, CA, Steven Christian grew up playing sports and excelled in football where he continued playing at the University of Hawaii and Oregon State University. When injuries sidelined him, he began to explore art, comics, and app development for mobile devices. It became an avenue of self-expression as well as therapy. This path has led him into the augmented reality space where he empowers Black communities to express themselves through creativity, art, and technology. His preferred mediums are comics, podcasts, and animation. He works on a web series called Eyelnd Feevr where he explores visual storytelling through animation, comics, and augmented reality. He lives by the motto: “Create and Conquer!” which means creating opportunities that overcome stereotypes and conquer adversity. He founded Iltopia Studios to give other Black voices a platform. Steven Christian is a MD/PhD Candidate at the Reno School of Medicine where he hopes to integrate the arts and emerging technology into his medical practice.
