6. How do you mentally and emotionally handle re- jection or long stretches between work? A: To handle rejection in this line of work, you just have to move on. It can be easier said than done for projects you’re really excited about, but at the end of the day, bills need to be paid and sometimes you have to move on. You have no choice. For me spe- cifically, I have other avenues in my life that sate my thirst for creativity. I attend and now run a cold reading group with other creatives every Tuesday night, and have a virtual Dungeons and Dragons campaign that I’ve been a part of for nearly 5 years.
7. What’s next for you—and what keeps your fire lit when the spotlight’s off? A: The next thing I’d like to do is book consistent voice- over work to relegate my other non-artistic jobs. The fire is constantly lit when I listen to ads, go through industrial training videos, and watch indie animatics online. There is such a boom in independently produced stuff, I know they’re always looking for voice actors. I would love to lend my talents in that regard.
