I watch David Lynch when I want to be comforted, and Nancy Meyers when I want to be disturbed.
WHAT’S SOMETHING PEOPLE GET WRONG ABOUT YOU?
People assume I’m mean or standoffish because I wear a lot of black. I’m not—black is just flattering!
DESCRIBE A RECENT CROSSROADS AT WHICH YOU FOUND YOURSELF.

Lately, my agent. Everyone else I text.
WHAT DO YOU WANT TO SEE MORE OF IN YOUR INDUSTRY? LESS OF?
I could say that I want to see more originality, more patience, or more diversity—but what I’d actually say is that I want to feel more trust.

Putting on a show.
