I started drinking Scotch just to be a man.

I just graduated from high school, and I was working at Blockbuster. Not only did I get into movies while I was there, but I was putting away boxes and looking at the kids on the covers. It felt like windows into these seemingly perfect lives.

I feel like Hollywood is a big high school again. Seriously, Ashton Kutcher is the prom king.

I want to work with intelligent people and look for scripts that I think are intelligent and surprising.

I wish I came from a more pure place. I don't have something to say from the bottom of my soul. I just know how to take stuff I like and repackage it in a slightly different way.

I love movie-making. I'm interested in writing and directing, and I've dabbled, but I haven't done anything I care to brag about. Yet.

Okay, using the dreaded middle name is not the best way to forge a bond.
