I was dirt-poor. I could barely hold down a job. Eventually, though, I started getting small parts on shows like 'Smallville,' 'Supernatural'... and lots of really bad sci-fi movies. I was running around the woods in wolf contacts, covered in fake blood made out of pancake syrup, roaring.

Life is too short to be serious

Evolved? As a dancer? Me? I don’t fall down as much, unless it’s part of the scripted dance. I don’t step on other people’s toes anymore. I think if I started the show a one out of ten dancer, now I am a two and a half.

I'm lucky on so many counts - I'm lucky to be alive.

It's all about perseverance. Absolute perseverance. You can always get back up.

I used to do tech support for MSN in Canada.

I want to get married and have children and live happily ever after. That's important to me.
