What do you enjoy most about being in your industry?
The entertainment industry is cool. I think getting insight into incredible stories, whether they're true or entirely made up, is awe-inspiring. It's something I could never do myself.
So it's cool to work on the other side, promoting those stories and helping others enjoy them as much as I do. Bringing them to life is fulfilling. It's great to work with passionate and mind-boggling creative individuals.
It's also been amazing to work on so many different sides of the industry. Coming from Disney to Amazon and the wide amount of projects I've worked on, it's all just resume builders. I can list Pixar or Lucasfilm movies you might know, and Amazon projects you may have never heard of but might now be interested in.
I've worked on things I never thought I would. It's incredibly rewarding and makes you appreciate the people who put the time, money, and heart into filmmaking.
