My advice on-set is to make every day better than last one. Change is good.

It's always money no matter kind of budget you have, though, it forces you to be creative and not take anything for granted.

I'm passionate about stories that have humanity, compassion and humor.

Improvise when obstacles present themselves. Happy accidents are magic! Have an open mind.

Create your own path. Cultivate it. It'll take time. It doesn't happen overnight. I was an actor for many years before I got behind the camera.

If you pitch your movie to someone and they say, "Oh, please, don't make that. No one would see it." Do it! Because that means you may have something that's not the norm.

Securing distribution is always a battle. And to get a film released is a pretty special accomplishment.
