I was born in Texas and I lived there `till I was 8. Then I moved to the Dominican Republic with my mom, lived there for two years and forgot every word of English I knew.
I wanted to write a film and I thought the best way to do so was to train myself within the field... It was just like a cycle of people trying to make it, not making it, doing extra work, and it was pretty depressing in the end.
I wanted to express myself. I wanted to be creative and I didn`t want to worry about someone bossing me around in the process. You have to struggle no matter where you are to get to where you`re going, so I`m like, working it honey!
I want them to listen to me for what I am saying. And I think the best way to do that is to sniff my armpits, and like, sit and burp every now and then.
I use to watch like maybe three or four movies, five days out of the week. I was a movie buff, but I really didn`t know what it was like behind the scenes, or the whole political process of it.
