“I grew up with SpongeBob - it came out in 1999, right before I turned 7. So it's been a part of my life and all my friends' lives and defined our humor, in a way.”

“I feel very proud of everyone I've worked with on 'SpongeBob' because they're all brilliant artists working at the top of their game to make something really special, and I think audiences feel that.”

“We all should be so lucky to be as optimistic as SpongeBob.”

“The '70s were a hot time. You know? I was, like, the most calm of all my friends.”

“'The Muthaship' was an experiment. All my friends are working at Endemol, so they just kind of pushed me into it to see if we could shoot a little web series on an iPhone - and that's what we did: we shot it on an iPhone. So it's so experiential and so silly.”

“My whole family are in the entertainment industry. It is always something I was used to; I was quite lucky growing up. To all my friends, it was quite exciting, but to me it was quite normal.”
