Sometimes you get lucky - you don't put much work in and you're successful anyway. But over the course of time, if you really want to shape your path, I think it's about the quality of the time you put in.

Energy is something you can control, in everything you do, you're going to face people more talented than you. I set myself apart by bringing more energy than they do.

Acting is the great love of my life. It gives you permission to use all parts of yourself. Permission to be the hero, the love interest, the comedian, the villain. Transformation excites me. So does truth. Nothing is more thrilling, hilarious, and tragic than the truth. Those things motivated me to become an actor. Also, they always have the best food on set.

I'm thankful for some of bad experiences I've had. They helped me with the way I view people and see them for who they really are.

Basketball has always and will always come first to me but it's also given me the chance to do really fun things and work with really fun people and its something I'm lucky to have.

Teams want me to do something stupid. You want to get to the point where nothing affects you, where you control them.

This has been a dream for me.
