@boybandfangirl @tricoastworldwide: What’s a defining moment in your life? There was a small but significant moment during the making of “I Used to be Normal” that stands out.

@boybandfangirl @tricoastworldwide: Why did you decide to work in this industry? Growing up I thought I wanted to be an author, a teacher or a journalist. In a way I feel like being a documentary filmmaker is a kind of combination of all three of those.
