At that time I had no other thoughts, I think I found an occupation that fits me really well, from a young age." -- Dazed Digital 2015--

The things that I didn’t learn as a trainee I had to deal with straight up, as a kid, which I think helped me to learn quicker than others. Most importantly, the things I needed to do were presented right in front of me every day, so it gave me a lot of opportunities to really develop myself," he said.
