forever acting want
Acting I'll do forever, but I want to produce and stuff as well.
athlete jumping ego
I'm an athlete; I've got an ego when stunt doubles have to come in. Not an ego like that, but when it comes to physical stuff, if I didn't have to have a stunt double, I would always probably do it myself unless the producers were jumping in and stopping me.
basketball soccer sports
I love sports. I've played basketball, baseball, soccer, tennis, track and field growing up.
independent thumbs-up giving
Independent film making is very collaborative. You feel like it's you, the director and other actors and you really feel like you have the final say. When you do the bigger films, the studio has to give the final thumbs up and they're usually not big on risk taking because they're trying to make money.
want film
I want to do more films.
hype guy kind
I've never been the kind of guy to hype myself up. It's just not my thing.
football athlete competitors
Never played football, but I'm an athlete. I'm a competitor.
workout couple writing
I do a lot. I don't like to sit still. I am pretty spontaneous. I like to cook a lot. I like to eat. I like to workout, surf, read, write, and create. I am always working on a couple of projects that I always have and need to put more time into.
sorry dad years
I was born in Orange County - in Santa Ana. My dad is from California. I was raised on the East Coast. My first two years were in California, but I claim East Coast. I'm sorry, I don't rep California.
girl play differences
Phone calls are much more personal than texting and then when you get a girl on the phone, it's like you ask a question and you get a response back. For a text message, they can read it and get back to it whenever they want to. So that makes a difference, almost like a power play in a way.
trying acting roles
Acting for me sometimes is taking whatever personal experiences I have and try to apply that [to a role].
good-movie want get-up
Watching a really good movie excites me, because it makes we want to get up off the couch and go shoot something and act in a scene.
girl guy pay
The douchiest thing a guy could do on a date is to make a girl pay. If you invite her out and then make her pay.
deep-affection bay-area born
I was born and raised in the Bay Area. It's the place I got a deep, deep affection for.
