- Interesting Fact: I saved my sister's puppy's life. He came out stillborn, but I revived him. After restarting the puppy's heart by stroking his chest with two fingers, Otis Dennis, started his rowdy life. During the height of my efforts, I was thinking about a scene in 101 Dalmatians when the dad was petting a stillborn puppy and it came back to life suddenly. For that brief moment, my life felt like a movie.
- Favorite quote: How to be an Artist: Make little signs that say YES! and post them all over your house. Make friends with freedom and uncertainty. Look forward to dreams. Take lots of naps. Believe in magic. Laugh a lot. Read everyday. Hug trees...
