Honestly, I am not trying to discourage anyone from becoming an actress, but if you want to become one be prepared to face everything that comes - along with it

My father comes from a generation of film that actors my age don't even know about, which is really sad.

When people ask me what I do for a living, I always say, "I get rejected for a living." And that's true.

My parents are artists, so I grew up with my mom having bonfires, seven guitars, and talented musicians and artists around like Jack Hirschman.

And a lot of times in slam poetry I feel like people are so worried about the performance that the words might not be as strong.

I remember when I first started in the business, I lost a lot of friends. Some were jealous, some were annoyed at the fact that I was an actress.

IF YOU'RE DOING SOMETHING THAT TERRIFIES YOU, MOST LIKELY YOU'RE DOING THE RIGHT THING.
