"TV and media can be a big expander or role model that helps you see to believe. Coming from a small town in Michigan I didn’t know it was possible to move to New York but I did have the show Friends and watching really informed my decision to move here."

"It’s so amazing that you can put on a song and it takes you back to a moment in time. And then that moment can become a different moment. Now I think about being in high school when I listen to certain 90s songs, but you can change the meaning of how a song makes you feel. And I find myself not wanting to play certain songs too much so I don’t change the meaning of them for myself."
