You don't ever want to appear like you're wearing too much makeup. If you have a heavy eye and a heavy lip, people are like, 'Wow, what are you trying to cover up?'

When you're a teenager, you don't want to bring your emotions to the surface and talk about them. You want to push them away.

Everyone has kind of done something that is bad and everyone has shades of good, but everyone has that darkness. There's always that little twinkle of darkness in everyone's eye.

I'll be ready for my first kiss! When it happens, it'll happen, but I don't know. It doesn't look like that will be anytime soon.

Its always great when a director is just supportive of what youre doing. Theyre not so much critiquing you but giving you more ideas, giving you tons of things to work with, making you question your character and making you think about it... and making it seem like everything is limitless. That usually helps a lot.

I think if you keep an open mind and actively look, you find these really great roles that you might have otherwise never even known were out there.
