What’s the best advice you ever got?
Whatever you do, it’s going to take you a solid five years to find any real success. Nothing will happen overnight.
What’s your favorite movie, all time and in any category?
I have always loved the movie “Scarface.”
What’s at the top of your bucket list?
I don’t have a huge bucket list. I should travel more. I don’t travel enough outside the U.S.
What was your first car?
My first car was a Jeep Cherokee.
Like to have it back?
I do love classic cars and as cool as I thought the truck was at the time, I am OK not having it. But I did put some larger tires on it and loved it, so my memories of it are great.
What’s the best thing about living in Los Angeles?
I love the mountains and the ocean and drives from the West Hollywood area where I live to Malibu on weekends. I love all the food options. There is so much beauty and history and culture here that may not be realized, but it’s here. I love the people and how so many of us moved here for a dream and trying to make it happen together in this great city.
