I'm fascinated with worlds where there's a small population left, whether it's a movie or these TV shows that fascinate me - 'Falling Skies' or 'The Walking Dead' - they are about survival and triumphing over difficult times. I just have a thing for 'em.

The future doesn't matter if I don't enjoy what's going on right now.

I want to try new things and put myself out there and take some risks.

I could live a thousand years and still not know everything, still not have tried anything.

To be let go from a soap opera is the most embarrassing confidence basher in the world. It's like, 'Oh, if I'm not good enough for that, I'm not good enough for anything.

I moved to L.A. right out of high school, but not to act. I think I chose it because it was on the same time zone as Seattle, where I'm from.

I've played so many jobs where I'm fearless, but it's far from me. I wish I were like that in real life.
