I GOT INTO THE ENTERTAINMENT BUSINESS BECAUSE…Every time I would walk down the aisles of the theater and through the dark corridor to the exit at the end of a film…I felt SOMETHING…whether it was an emotion, a new way of thinking or just a general sense of relief. That feeling…I wanted to be the catalyst behind.

THE movie/book/tv show that inspired me most was…

Pulp Fiction. There is a Bad Mother*** Wallet underneath Briarcliff High School that I placed there in 2007 after they told the HS Seniors to put one item they cherished most in a time capsule that you could revisit in 25 years.

What i love most about what i do for a living is…How challenging it is and how every day is different than the one before it.

my happy place is…

Atlantic Avenue Beach

One song from the soundtrack of my life would be…

“I love you, you love me” by Barney the Dinosaur
