Luckily my parents were not against my ambition, they've always been very supportive. But they were adamant that I went to university first.

I have been extremely proactive in putting myself up for characters that may have been meant to specifically be Caucasian. You bring an interesting angle to the character that isn't written.

I like to do new things, so I always take on roles that I feel will keep me on my toes. I never want to pigeon myself, so I always like to surprise myself. I believe in versatility and so I would play anything as long as it was a challenge.

Sometimes my ethnicity is relevant, other times not. I definitely get the best of both worlds.

At the end of the week, it's nice to just hang out in a pair of jeans and let my hair down. I need a break from all that fashion!

The predictable thing about 'The Good Wife' is how unpredictable 'The Good Wife' is.

I am one of the new characters in the brand new series of 'Postman Pat.' It has been a joy to do.
