About Chris Giles

Chris P Giles started as a mobile DJ and entertainer with a background in audio engineering which began in the local church as a teen.

After spending the last 15+ years on the road around the country as a DJ and Audio Engineer for events of all types; music concerts, corporate meetings, church services, fashion shows and so much more - 2020 happened! Chris shifted his focus and took his love of event production and moved into the live streaming of gaming content, tech-related topics, and providing virtual tech support to those new to the online universe.

Currently, as a content creator, live streamer and producer, he is going live on Amazon Live, YouTube, Facebook and anywhere that takes a video feed. He helps those getting started in live streaming and gaming to avoid the confusion that being new to tech can bring so they can elevate their performance and shorten the timeframe required to launch their online endeavour.
