I come from a huge family and out of all 34 of my immediate family members, my heavier influences were women. Between my grandmothers, aunts, older female cousins, and of course my mother, I was pretty much predominantly raised by women, as they make up most of my family anyway.

I always say that you are who you are and you can't hide it.

My ability to adapt has always stood out. I've been immersed in many worlds and have had the influence of many things in my upbringing so I'm familiar with so many styles of living, so many characters, so many life paths and its just easy to simulate for me.

All of my friends are independent in thought, that's important.

I think it's really important to teach our children about their lineage and it especially makes a difference if you share that information while they're young.

My hero among heroes is my grandmother, she's the epitome of strength and I try to mock that strength all the time. She's a beast.

Actors don't act, we're just being in a different circumstance and scenario.
