William Shakespeare was a brilliant writer and he only wrote the truth. So, if I dont believe it, I have to work really hard to see what that truth is so that I do; thats the only way I can make it believable for the audience.

My favorite films are when all of the technicalities are so seamless and so well done that I'm not thinking about them - you're able to go full-on into the story versus talking about edgy this moment was.

I wasn't even a theater kid in high school. I studied classical piano, and I ran track.

[In New York,] when you say you're an actor, there's a certain level of respect that goes with that.

My view of myself as an artist expanded because of the time I spent at Cal Arts.

I started playing piano when I was around four; thats my first passion.

Im a songwriter and Id love to make that a part of my career.
