What is your proudest achievement while working at Imageworks?
Getting this job. My mom cried. It was great.
What inspired you to become involved in making movies?
I think I got tricked into it. When I applied for art school my head was in another century. I thought I was going to learn to be painter. At the admissions office, the school told me the animation department was the hardest one to get into so I changed my life goals right there. It had never dawned on me that animation was a career. I discovered my love for art and my movie addiction could coexist and it’s been my obsession ever since.
