What do you enjoy most about being in your industry?
I love being a part of storytelling. I think that media is really powerful and has the ability to impact millions, both positively and negatively, but I love being a part of that process.
I also enjoy the fact that, at least on the TV, commercial, and smaller project side, there's always something new. You're jumping on a new project, or you're wrapping up a new episode of TV.
It's fun that there's always something changing. It's not the same job every single day, because I think after a while that would get really boring. So, I like that there's constant change. There's constant problem-solving to do, constantly multitasking, things like that that just keep you on your toes. It's just exciting, and I really enjoy that.
