I was put on a surfboard by a cute boyfriend in high school.

The sun would come up over the ocean, and we'd be eating scrambled eggs before we shot some stuff. It was a vacation in the sense that it was the best working conditions.

I'm more of like a recreational surfer, not a consist surfer. Some people get out every week or every day.

I didn't need clothes. I was allowed the opportunity to act out moments you don't get the opportunity to experience in your own life, let alone as a character in a film. I didn't feel naked.

We had two cameras, so they could turn it on and shoot as much as we wanted. You don't have to worry about wasting money on film. A lot more takes are possible.

I'm doing my work in an environment that's ultimately about dollars and cents.

I like working in any medium. Who's making it? How much do I like the story? Does it contribute something?
