I've been playing a lot of really strong, able woman, but I think it would be really fun to play a crazy drug addict, or something.

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

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

I think my uncle was probably the biggest influence in my life. We grew up in the same house, and he was just a really great, hard-working, honest, ethical person.

I started when I was in college because I was shy and thought it would be a good way to break out of that.

Creating my own roles, as an actor, is great. You're so at the mercy of other people, and you're waiting for a job. That's just a horrible way to live, so I just decided to take matters into my own hands, find my own projects, and create them myself, and then do other stuff that people might throw my way as well.

People think I'm crazy and reckless but I'm absolutely not... I'm soooo safe and soooo careful and I won't do anything that feels like I could break something.
