As a kid I loved to connect with other kids by acting out scenes from movies and TV shows I admired at that time. There were no right or wrong scenarios, rules or ways to play - we just did. And we felt free. It took me to a place where nothing was impossible. Years later, I still live by the same principle: through hard work and determination I moved from a small town to the city of my dreams and continue to connect with people on stage and on screen. I want to inspire people to be brave and go for their dreams --

that is why I act and direct.
