There was a teacher who recognized that I was interested in cartooning and he was great.

I was always into cartoons and animation.

I had a really creative teacher at primary school. He used to get us doing things such as singing Spandau Ballet in drag in the choir, and I remember loving it.

I learnt the theory of movement, which I still teach sometimes. I was very, very ambitious to learn a skill.

When I was in middle school, I liked to make cartoons.

My brothers were the ones who taught me about mythology and storytelling, and showed me how to do stop-motion animation.

Literally overnight, I became an animator... and one that was well-known.

My history teacher was utterly terrifying, but her lessons were very inspiring. She got me interested in people and stories, which then led me to acting.

Cartooning was a good fit for me. And yet now, years later, I almost never think about it.
