Money is important yes, but not the most important. I don't need money to smile or breathe. I would still be breathing if all my money disappeared tomorrow.

Honestly, being a part of any worthy life story is a goal of mine.

I was drawn into acting due to the fact that I could express myself better. I could use my voice - my entire body - not just my looks, height, and physical expressions.

I didn't truly understand the depth of my roots until I was old enough to wonder and care.

I think I unknowingly seek people who are better than me in the sense of strength and wisdom. It's like I've got to know and trust that you have the answers and that you can carry me if needed.

There's very few shows that truly reflect specific ethnic experiences, and when they come and come right, they're a hit.

I surround myself with strong willed, courageous personalities, because I've got to be coached by the best.
