I don't really look around and say, 'I've made it.' I just look around and think how fortunate I am to work with the people I'm working with.

A lot of times I'm on my own trying to find research material and things like that and trying to educate myself on the world and the film that I'm working on.

Growing up, I had a very normal relationship with my brother and sister. But, over time, they became my best friends, and now I hang out with them all the time. I'm very close with them.

I know these will become old stories someday and our pictures will become old photographs and we'll all become somebody's Mom or Dad, but right now, these moments are not stories. This is happening and I'm here.

For me, being able to be vulnerable is difficult, but it's just something that I feel comfortable doing. I need to fully understand why, the thought-process behind the character and I have to believe it. That comes from a lot of preparation.

It's my passion, that's what I wanna do, it's the end goal, that's what I crave every second of the day is to be working on a production but also to be the person leading the production and guiding the pacing of the storytelling.

A lot of times, when I'm approaching pre-production and my job, and trying to research and work on the script and whatnot it's always different.
