In stand up every joke is thought about so meticulously, and one word can completely change how the audience responds. You're up there with no safety net; you can't shirk responsibility. It's your thoughts; it's your voice. You can't blame it on the writing, you can't blame it on the editor. You are just up there completely naked.

I would love to be in 'Downton Abbey.' That's the thing I thing many people would have a good laugh with me saying anything like that. I feel like that's the next phase of my career. To reprove to everyone that I can do things besides the crazy characters.

I think the good news for me in life is that I really trust my instincts when I come to work. Maybe less in life and in love, but in work and in comedic beats, I feel pretty confident.

As an actor, when you're doing comedies, you're around fantastic, funny people and you hopefully have a really good time doing it.

Twitter's a lot of work! That's the first thing I would say. There's so much pressure to be funny.

I can be such a people pleaser, and so worried about what people are thinking or feeling insecure.

As I've grown as a person and gotten to know myself more - the question of how someone becomes who they become has gotten really interesting to me.
