Stage performance is obviously a much grander sort of depiction. The audience isn't right in your face as close as a camera lens gets.

I have different routines for different types of chaos. When I find myself swamped with work and surrounded by people, I try to carve out time to walk my dog alone so I can organize my thoughts.

The work that I have been doing on television has been important to me because I have had the opportunity to portray very strong, intelligent women. It has been such a privilege to depict a woman that is independent, unapologetic, and resilient on both shows.

You never want to be pigeonholed into something and have people think, "Oh, that's the guy we call for this particular thing."

I think one of my biggest lessons so far in life is that hard work really does pay off. It may not culminate in the way you expected it to, but I have found that when I really put my head down and apply myself, I often get a good result.

Every time I get a script in my inbox, it's like a little Christmas present. It's so exciting to see what they've cooked up.
