I didn't take a single business class. I learned on the job.

It is still harder all around for women to get funding in business and film. There are only a very small group of female unicorns who have the power to tell stories on film. We need to have the courage to push back... all the effort is the work of bravery.

I do think film can change culture, in a way that reading a story in the New York Times does not.

What is exciting today is that with technology filmmaking has been democratized, and so many more people have access to making a film.

There's a leadership gap in the modern business world. Young professionals need to step up to the challenge.

I have an opportunity to give a voice to those who have no voice. Even though film production wasn't a bucket list item for my life, what I have been passionate about is creating change and impacting society - especially bringing conversations forward on formerly taboo subjects.
