Christopher Rhodes
On most corners of the internet I'm known by my username seethestarsablaze, but you can call me Chris. In real life I'm a 32-year-old content creator, activist, and small business owner from Austin, TX — who also happens to be transgender.
Being a lifestyle content creator — I enjoy posting about travel, style, fitness, advocacy, the latest restaurants + bars, and really any aspect of my life. As a content creator I’ve had the opportunity to use my platform to share so many great products, organizations, and events with my audience of over 150k individuals across my various social media channels.
Off the internet I run the clothing brand FLAVNT Streetwear with my twin sister where we have helped donate over $50,000 to help trans people afford gender-affirming surgeries. When I’m not working at FLAVNT I spend my time making informational videos for the LGBTQIA+ community, finding ways to give back and make a difference while being the example I wished I could have looked up to as a young queer person. I’m always working on new projects; I speak on panels, I blog from time to time, film vlogs, and make other videos about my life and transition. My first poetry book, Ablaze, was published in March of 2024 and can be purchased here.
On a less formal note, I'm a grandpa whose favorite drink is gin, I’m always planning my next vacation, I love Kelly Clarkson more than most people would care to admit and would absolutely say my happy place is anywhere on the water soaking in sunshine. You can often find me in the gym or playing in any number of queer sports leagues.
