What is your proudest achievement while working at Imageworks?
One senior artist, upon joining my team, was not feeling engaged with the company anymore. So, I organized team-building activities. I gave him challenges and responsibilities. My greatest achievement at Imageworks, is to have seen this artist smile again while talking about work, feeling part of a team, knowing that he's trusted.

What inspired you to becoming involved in making movies?
I can't recall a time where I did not want to make movies. I've loved movies my whole life, my career choice hadn't been a choice: I had to work in the industry.
