Mary's College, which is in the Bay.
I had a teacher there, Rosemary Graham, who read something that I wrote in a creative writing class and was like, yo, you should write screenplays.
But at that time, I was a chemistry major.
So I figured I was going to try to be a doctor or something, right?
And then, but the chemistry labs was not working out with my football practices.
I was having a real tough time.
So I was like, yo, I got to get out this chemistry shit so I can keep my scholarship.
And that football program collapsed.
So I got another scholarship to Sacramento State.
Went there and majored in finance, but I took filmmaking classes on the side, if that makes sense.
I mean, I guess out of all the people I worked with, Louis Vig was who I met first.
