I went into his office after taking a break from my trip to Disneyland. I was going with my mom and sister. Of course, we put that on hold for a few hours once we got that phone call to go see Steven, and I went to meet him in his office… He offered me the job right then and there. He said, “Ariana, are you busy this summer?” Of course I knew what to say.
Age 12 to 13 is an interesting age to be immortalized in…. It was a really powerful role for a girl, where I got to save the day and have all this knowledge about computers.
