As a child, I grew up with the films of Spielberg, Cameron, Zemeckis, Landis and many more - films that have shaped me. One of my earliest memories is watching "Jurassic Park" for the first time with my parents. My fascination with stories was awakened - how they are constructed, how they can create emotions in us and why we never tire of them. But a lot has changed since "Jurassic Park." Stories and the way we tell and consume them have never been as diverse as they are today. It's precisely this diversity that I find so appealing and challenging, and I'm excited not only about all the stories I'll encounter in my professional career, but also about the medium in which they'll be most appropriately told.
