I just love drama. I love the idea of exploring relationships, whatever they may be. That's fun for me.

One of the roles I hold really close to my heart is a small "under-five" role I did on "The Young and the Restless." I think I did about four episodes and it meant so much to me, simply because it was my mom's all-time favorite soap.

Not long ago someone said I should shorten it to just Emma. But I really, really love my name. From as far as I can remember, my parents have taught me to be really proud of my name.

Climbing trees is still one of my favorite things to do. A tree and a good book and I'm happy.

It's so hard to fight against someone who is stuck in what they believe whether you agree with it or not.

I remember thinking, in Kansas my name will be Evett - which is my middle name. I didn't want to explain to anyone how to say Em-a-yat-zee.

My mom always wanted me be a ballerina, and I was just adamant that I wanted to be a track star. I wanted nothing to do with ballet.
