I am a control freak but it's important to feel strongly about the material you're working on.

I never got into 'MacGyver,' but 'All the President's Men' and 'The Conversation' were big for me.

I don't want to be thought of as somebody who's spiritually ambiguous, but the reality is there's unknown things happening. I'm not ready to point at what they are or what the reason is, but I know they exist.

I got a degree in math, from not a good school in Texas, and then I went to work as a software engineer. Just not glamorous at all.

Probably the TV show I've watched the most is 'How It's Made' on the History Channel. I could watch 24 hours of 'How It's Made' and never get bored.

My favorite films are the ones that I walk away from and I know I saw a story.

Editing is very satisfying process. You spend hours working on something and then you get to watch it. It's immediately satisfying where everything else is just kind of waiting and waiting and waiting.
