“The first thing I had to do when I built the oven is that I had to put belief in myself.” [7:20]

“I really felt that all of the sudden, Brooklyn was leaving me behind. I needed to find a way back here… I didn’t want to serve pizza to older people- I wanted to serve pizza to young people; I wanted to be a part of something new.” [19:30]
