    “You’ve got to give it everything you’ve got. It’s your dream”

    A little over a year ago I realized that I did not want to study the same major anymore, which was art. I realized that what I was truly passionate about and would actually give it everything I’ve got to do, was work in the movies.

    Dune: Part Two 2024
