There's nothing like a good conservatory drama school to really get you ready for the work force.

You can get too heavy on the masculine side of things with all of the action, but then we've got a really nice balance going on when you go home and look at the wives' story lines and what's going on on the home front. I think people really respond to that balance of masculine and feminine.

I never really said I wanted to be a TV star, when I was a kid.

I was trained in the theater, so I really learned a lot about how to work with the camera, just technically speaking, it's been an amazing learning curve.

To any aspiring actor, go and train yourself.

I was trained at a conservatory school, and they usher you into the business by giving you a showcase. I was so lucky that I met with an agent, and he sent me on an audition for a TV pilot, and I happened to book it. It was like complete luck that it happened.
