Ever since I started as an actress, just to catch up on some money, but not having an income for three years was tricky.

I like the work that I get to do.

I think there's a big misconception out there about actors and the choices they have.

I would rather not work than play in a movie that nobody watches.

I enrolled in an acting workshop and my first acting role was on the TV soap opera 'Melrose Place.'

I don't even have cable anymore, or a television. I just watch on computers. It's clearly the future of where we're heading.

In studio films, everything has to be boxed in, everybody needs to know beforehand - this is comedy, this is sci-fi, this is drama - and what's the point of independent film if you don't get to experiment?
