I got an M.F.A. in acting from NYU, and part of our training is to learn how to use swords in combat situations in a performance and Shakespeare plays where you have to fight.

People with nothing to hide don't usually feel the need to say so.

My favorite TV shows are Orange Is the New Black, House of Cards, Modern Family, and Veep.

I hate horror movies! I avoid them like the plague. I don't like getting scared.

I love writing for other actors, women of African descent and people who are generally underrepresented.

I've always been extremely physically active.

You Americans, you have no idea how much your stuff infiltrates the rest of the world!
