I'm a firm believer in doing things that scare you.

Almost every Marine I've met says I portray a Marine dead-on, which is really, really flattering.

The main prank that we play with props is for people's birthdays. The special effects people will put a little explosive in the cake so it blows up in their face - that's always fun to play on a guest star, or one of the trainees or someone who's new.

When I do get time, I like to hike and I take lots of vitamins and powders to keep healthy.

I've always thought of myself as a businesswoman. I have the creative side, but I also have this business sense.

I've always been like that. I was a tomboy when I was a kid, so I was always playing baseball and basketball and football and stuff as a kid with the boys.

I understand men much better than most women I know.
