Writing, directing... anything behind the camera is what I want to do.

My truest passion is writing, so I continue to do that on my own while seeing what all the buzz is about being in front of the camera.

I think my parents love that I want to do something a little different than what they do.

It's funny because I've resisted acting as a career for most of my life. But both my parents told me if I ever want to direct, I should act first because no director should direct until they know what it's like to be in the actor's shoes.

I didn't want to go to college, and my parents said, 'Well, then you'd better get a job, because we're not paying for you to drop out of school.' So I delivered pizza near USC for a while. We had to wear khakis and a baseball hat with the logo on it, and I worked almost every day.

Some formulas are too complex and I don't want anything to do with them.
