HC NYU: Out of all the schools that you applied to, what made you choose NYU?
“I loved my program and I loved the location. I was dying to get out of my tiny hometown and go somewhere where things actually happened and everyone wasn’t the same.”
HC NYU: What is the biggest influence on your style?
“I love scrolling tumblr for #inspo but also the streets of NYC have been very inspiring. I always see things I love and try and do it my own way.”
HC NYU: If you could have dinner with anyone (alive or dead), who would it be at why?
“Taylor Swift because she’s Taylor Swift and she’d probably make a great dinner.”
HC NYU: What what the first film or television show that made you want to pursue a career in film?
“I always loved movies and TV shows when I was a kid, but it wasn’t until I was older that I really wanted to do something in TV/Film. It was probably when I started watching “GIRLS” or “Scandal” and learning about Shonda Rhimes and Lena Dunham was when I was like ‘I want this!'”
