I love telling stories, that's it. I love it. That's the word I would choose to describe what I love the most.

My goal was, and still is, to write first, direct my own stuff whenever possible and control my own creative destiny.

I really had no idea when I pitched the series that it would lead to so much fun and so much connecting with kids and moms.

The thing that surprises me most is, you cannot change who you are.

Reality is a genre that seems to be here to stay. I don't know how many of the new shows will last, but the more competition you have, the harder that pie is to slice up.

I married my wife and she brought these two amazing kids into my life, and we were realizing, God there's nothing out there in fiction about blended families.

There's something to be said for embracing who you are.
