I always enjoyed acting. My aunt was actually an actress.

As far as the MMOs go, especially with the voice chat, it becomes like hanging out with your friends in a chat channel, and you're playing at the same time. So it becomes a lot more social than people would probably think.

I have a little obsessive-compulsive personality. You can tell because I played online games for eight hours a day.

TV and comics and movies are what you think about when you think about geek, but people can be a geek about anything.

In life they're not going to serve you lemons, they're going to serve you lemonade; and I don't really like lemonade because I've got a really bad acid reflux.

I love sitcoms, and I grew up on sitcoms. That's my tasty junk food. So I wanted to create a sitcom and have some really quirky characters, because most of the stuff they make now is just so marginalized. How interesting is a white guy who's 28 years old and lives in New York? What story have we not seen about a character like that? Just as a writer, it's so much easier to come up with comedy when you have a really oppressed Indian boy. Or a mother who is an addict but still has to take care of her kids.

I created 'The Guild' because nobody was offering me the roles I thought I could do best at in Hollywood.
