Humanity inspires me, people inspire me, I've always been a people person, and I love people.

I love actors, and I'm passionate about the creative process of acting and filmmaking.

I've opened up my school in California in a beautiful facility on Ventura Boulevard. I'm always in heaven when I'm doing my classes.

As a director, I have to do everything. As an actor, I'm just worried about one role, that's it. As a director, everything is important. Everything is something you have to be very detailed and specific about in telling a story. So for me, the job is far greater than just being the actor, there's a lot more responsibility creatively, technically.

I love to hear stories about people who got to places where they are today. Those kinds of things are very interesting to me.

That's just part of the blessing of being an actor: you get to learn so many things about life.

My dreams, my desires, and my goals make me smile.
