Born and raised in Wichita, KS, I moved to NYC to work at Vimeo. I like taking photos, trying new beers, and playing video games.

doilookcoolrightnowWhen I was in high school I used to buy romance novels at thrift stores and place them on the shelves in my classrooms and the school library. I was a prankster like that.

Speaking of meetings, the meetings have gotten pretty weird. There are fewer and fewer executives who are in the business because they love movies. There are fewer and fewer executives that know movies. So it can become a very strange situation. I mean, I know how to drive a car, but I wouldn’t presume to sit in a meeting with an engineer and tell him how to build one, and that’s kind of what you feel like when you’re in these meetings. You’ve got people who don’t know movies and don’t watch movies for pleasure deciding what movie you’re going to be allowed to make.
