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

You know how theres always the one girl in drama school who can cry at the drop of a hat? She has that emotional well she can tap into in a second? Im not that girl. It takes a lot to get me to that place.

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

The reason why I like theater is because it's a long journey, and no matter what role you play, we are all in it together.

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

I think even when I was little there was signs that I was an artist. I've always been an artist.

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