I keep to myself, but I love life.

We need to humanize women instead of making the idea of a woman be so stigmatized. That's what's interesting to me as a writer and a director - being able to tell stories that represent women as human beings and don't relate specifically to their gender. I want to just allow them to have their journeys.

Teachers didn't like me very much. They thought I was just this punk kid and they always wanted to kick me out.

Ben Affleck inspired me and reignited my love for acting and filmmaking. It was a big part of getting me to a place where I felt inspired to make my own movie.

I talk too quiet, and I have to yell on stage.

I try to keep an open mind but I'm so tired of the mediocrity.

I'm a lot more grounded now, a lot more settled in my skin.
