I'm always going to be making costumes. It's one of the ways I relax my brain.

Being a geek is all about learning the inventories of things.

I think I'm learning how to release every day. Recognizing that everything you encounter, touch, or love can become part of you, and in essence never disappears, as long as you can recall it to memory or heart. It's all so connected that we lose everything, but also, we never lose anything.
