In my life, I've never really listened to when people start forming opinions on how you should be doing things.

I find that I put my body in my work when I am at a particularly difficult or joyous point because I want to feel that moment.

I think you only see experiences as defining moments with distance.

My favorite part of the whole filmmaking process is working with a fantastic cinematographer, a fantastic actor or actors, and then just creating emotions and stories. I get so excited by that. That's the part I'm utterly addicted to.

I feel like I've lost 10 years of my life to cancer.

I have a massive phobia for schedules and calendars. I need people to tell me where I need to be. I can't bear to see it in black and white. I think it's a fear of being pinned down.

My childhood had its challenges, like everyone's. It imbued me with certain things and took away others. It made me very determined.
