Beirut, Lebanon because that is where my family is from and where my culture is from, so I figure that would be a dream place to be.

I’ve always felt that i was creative and i feel television is a great way to stay fresh because you’re staying within a routine, whether you’re making a news production or sitcom, but there’s always stuff to build off of.
