For my entire career, I have worked to bring electronic inventions to healthcare markets where there is a critical and urgent need.
I went up to the top of the career ladder and I came down again, I am past all that.
I could not - and I still cannot - see a sustainable career as a filmmaker in which I focus fully on our gay stories.
If I'm enjoying something, I'd like to be able to just have it all. Frankly, that's the way I'm approaching my career now. I'm a total workaholic.
Medicine was certainly intended to be a career. I wanted to become a psychiatrist, an adolescent ambition which, of course, is fulfilled by many psychiatrists.

I feel so much pride to represent my community and be Latino. No doubt about it, above my career and sales being a Latino comes first.
The stand up, everything was accidental. I never grew up and was the class clown and had to get the attention. It was - it really is, I have a career despite myself.
