Krzysztof Walczak

Krzysztof was born in Zielona Gora, Poland in 1993. Krzysztof Walczak is the only son to Alina and Radoslaw Walczak. His mother was a teacher at the time and father was a professional gymnast. Krzysztof spent his early years in Zielona Gora as a typical 90's kid in Poland, spending time with his family and friends, trying no to get in too much trouble and trying all sorts of sports, as it was then virtually the only way for a middle class child to succeed in a freshly post-communist country. He attended preschool no. 14 in Zielona Gora. Following that he attended the Adam Mickiewicz elementary school no. 14 in Zielona Gora. While in elementary school, he began training as a gymnast under his father (national gymnastics coach). He then attended Tadeusz Slusarski junior high school for athletes no. 4 in Zielona Gora. After one year in junior high school, Krzysztof abandoned gymnastics due to his height, and began playing basketball at Zielona Gora's basketball club - SKM Zastal. In 2009, Krzysztof was admitted to the prestigious Tadeusz Kotarbinski high school no. 3 in Zielona Gora. In 2011 Krzysztof left Poland in order to pursue education and athletic experience playing basketball in the United States of America. Krzysztof found himself in Uhrichsville, Ohio, living with a host family and attending Claymont high school. After one year and graduating high school with honors, Krzysztof was admitted to the University of St. Thomas in St. Paul, Minnesota with a full-ride scholarship sponsored by the Wasie Foundation. It wasn't until the second year of college, when Krzysztof started to realize his true passion for filmmaking. Along with Sean Warner and Alison Bengtson, Krzysztof founded BOME Productions and produced their first film - Skaza. Since then BOME Productions evolved to a full-service production house and film agency. Krzysztof graduated University of St. Thomas in May, 2012 with B.A. degree in Communications and Journalism and Business Administration. The same year, Krzysztof was admitted to Mitchell Hamline school of law in St. Paul, also on a full-ride scholarship sponsored by the Wasie Foundation. Krzysztof studies alternative dispute resolution, transaction law and negotiation techniques and is anticipated to graduate with a J.D. degree in May, 2019. By the end of 2017, Krzysztof already represented over 20 film professionals.
