Losing a parent over eight years is a very dark journey. I spent the first four years feeling bad and angry and sorry for myself.

I went to film school, so I certainly know how to make things quickly and cheaply. But at the same time, I have the experience of working with Steve Starkey for three years. I watched him produce some gigantic movies.

I'm feeling pretty fortunate. I've been having lots of lovely auditions and meetings, so I'm savoring the moment.

That's the funny thing about life. We're rarely aware of the bullets we dodge. The just-misses. The almost-never-happeneds. We spend so much time worrying about how the future is going to play out and not nearly enough time admiring the precious perfection of the present.

After leaving ImageMovers, I sold two pitches to Fox Atomic, which I then wrote for them.
