What you always try to do, as an actor, is find the thing that's universal in the person.

Writing is something Ive always done on the side. I thought that no one would be interested, so I kept it to myself.

I played baseball growing up, second base, and then when I got to high school,it just didnt exist there.

Theres monsters in all of us, but theres also vulnerability.

We all have monsters inside of us, and we all have an inner child in us. You always think about your inner child as being the sweet and innocent part of yourself, but it's also the part that's all ego with the mentality of, "If the world isn't pleasing me, it isn't doing its job."

I caught the acting bug from my dad.

You want to give the director what they want, and you don't always know exactly how it goes, so you want to try it a few different ways. You have to be flexible; you have to be in collaboration with the director; you have to be versatile. But you also want to be protective of what you really believe in and how you feel it should be portrayed.
