Creator of HVMMINGBYRD
✨ About Me ✨
I’m Christopher — the heart behind HVMMINGBYRD.
My life was forever changed after surviving a stroke, brain surgery, and a long road of recovery that continues to shape how I move through the world. I live with aphasia, epilepsy, and I’m on the autism spectrum — realities that have challenged me, strengthened me, and refined my voice in ways I never could have imagined.
Healing hasn’t been linear. It has been humbling, demanding, and deeply transformative. Through it, I’ve learned the power of neuroplasticity, intention, and creating within my own guidelines — not as limitations, but as wisdom earned.
HVMMINGBYRD exists because of this journey.
It is more than photography or clothing — it’s a living expression of survival, creativity, and resilience. A space for warriors, survivors, and anyone rewriting their story after life reroutes them.
Everything I create is rooted in:
-
Awareness
-
Empowerment
-
Healing through expression
-
Giving back and opening conversations others may not yet know they need
This work is about turning pain into purpose.
About showing up fully — even when the body and brain have changed.
And about reminding others that flight doesn’t disappear after impact — it evolves.
This is my reality now.
And it asks me to do more, be more, and help more than ever before.
✨ Before We Create ✨
Welcome to the HVMMINGBYRD creative space! Before we begin, here’s what helps our collaboration feel meaningful, inspired, and smooth:
-
Health first. My priority is always my well-being — I’m navigating recovery from a stroke, brain surgery, aphasia, epilepsy, and living on the autism spectrum. I share this so we can work together with understanding, care, and respect for boundaries.
-
Team effort. Creating magic happens when we show up fully for each other. I may need a little extra patience or support, and your energy and presence make all the difference.
-
Communication matters. Please leave voice messages — I don’t respond to missed calls without VM because I often don’t know who is calling. Email or coordinated phone calls work best. Detailed, kind emails help me organize my thoughts and respond clearly.
-
Learn the handbook. I invite you to explore my journey, resources, and podcast links. Think of this as the HVMMINGBYRD guide — it helps us work together smoothly and intentionally.
