chrismelberger

He has two sisters. and his mom passed away a few years ago.

Prior to being a fulltime content creator, chrismelberger completed his college degree in Graphic Design and Digital Media at Marist College in Pughkeepsie and then moved back to his parents’ place so that he could be with his family when he wasn’t at work.

Chrismelberger had a reputation for being the class clown when he was in high school, which motivated him to submit a meme to his college’s Vine meme page during his first year. It immediately got 800 likes, so he decided to start his own Vine channel during his junior year. His mom was very supportive of his hobby and would often comment on his content.

While he was in college during the senior year, he and his friend decided to start up a business website to promote and sell both their own and their friends creative works, such as art and music. They chose ‘Neat Dude’ as it had been a catch phrase of theirs’ during high school. They also created a vine account to promote their brand.

Even after Vine died, he still continued to create content on YouTube and other platforms. However, he only started streaming video games on Twitch in late 2017, as he was afraid that it would detract from his comedy sketches. Nevertheless, it has since transitioned into his primary creative outlet, although he does continue to create sketches and run his brand in his free time.

Although his dad originally thought that his career path was stupid, he has since come around in light of his son’s success. His channel isn’t appropriate for children.

Shandude is his long-term girlfriend.

According to his Twitch overlay, chrismelberger has ~3,720 subscribers. This would put his base monthly income at around $9,300 USD. This excludes the income that he receives from tiered subscriptions, donations, Twitch cheer bit contributions, advertisements, merchandise sales, sponsorships and income from his other creative content.

Although he doesn’t have a set schedule, he tends to stream almost daily for between 4 – 9 hours per session.
