As I have been paving my career as a filmmaker my parents have been there for me every step of the way. They have believed in my dreams despite how steep the mountain has been.

I think staying away from labels is what makes my films refreshing.

I think my biggest advice to filmmakers is to look into the many digital platforms that exist for you and your team to distribute your film.

I hope my visual language inspires others to tell their stories and challenges people's thinking.

I think making shorts is really about giving yourself the opportunity to learn what your strengths and weaknesses are. That's really important to know before getting to your first feature. In many ways you can't afford to make too many mistakes while on that feature.

One hopes for that type of result but you just never know what factors will work in your favor. I think I just was concentrating on making the best film I could under the circumstances I was given. That's all I could really do.
