"I really do New York is my surrogate home I became a woman there," she says. "Being an artist in New York being young no nothing to tether you like no family" Her dad was the one who said get a terminal degree because if it doesn't work out you can still teach so he was still thinking in terms of academics and I always thought about that back up. She went straight from undergrad to NYU grad film which felt like a movie.
